Broker's Comments

A little gem. I have been known to refer to “proper little ships” before, but this is a “proper nano-ship.” As usual I have fallen in love with her, I really should get a job where I get less emotionally involved!

She was built around 1973-74, GRP-sheathed marine ply, designed by Robert Tucker of Ballerina fame. He also designed motor craft such as the Lochin and Moonraker, but this little yachtlet is reminiscent of the Maurice Griffiths designs like the Golden Hind and the Eventide, only a little smaller.

The present owner has renewed and replaced a fair amount of the coachroof and deck woodwork, and she is looking mighty fine!

Please note, some of these photos were taken before the refurbishment. Those taken recently are dated 2012 in the photo caption.
