Remarks

Based on the design of a traditional Norfolk Broads day boat dating from the late 1940's, the Jaunty 20 is an iconic Broads day launch. With her low maintenance GRP hull, the current incarnation of the Jaunty 20 benefits from the use of modern materials, and this example further benefits from modern technology in the form of her quiet and environmentally-friendly electric propulsion. Sadly for sale due to other commitments, this is a very rare opportunity to purchase a nearly new Jaunty 20 at a reduction of some 25% from her price when new. This lovely day boat would be equally at home on the Thames or other inland waterway.
