Remarks

Having just been the subject of a very comprehensive restoration, this Reverie class Broads river cruiser is presented in good structural condition throughout. With just a few domestic items still needing to be addressed before she is put back into full commission (connection of gas and 12V electric systems, BSS certificate and new berth cushions), and with her easily handled rig, this Broads yacht offers an ideal introduction to traditional Broads sailing. A delightful little river cruiser!
