Remarks

This is a strong, safe little sea & river boat. She is reluctantly for sale due to lack of use (being the smallest of three boats in the family!) and her Broads mooring and toll are paid until March 2008. The owner states that she is not short of sail area and that she has performed well at JRA East Coast Rallies in 2005 and 2006. A trailer for road delivery could be borrowed.
