Remarks

Bure Classics very rarely come on the open market, such is their popularity, excellent sailing characteristics and the fantastic reputation of their builder. This well spec'd and well maintained example has had only two owners from new. Launched on the 200th anniversary of victory at the Battle of Trafalgar, she is named after the sloop that delivered the victory message to the admiralty! If you're looking for a superbly built small Broads yacht, that requires minimal ongoing maintenance thanks to her GRP hull, but still retains all of the charm and beautiful aesthetics of traditional river cruiser class yachts, then look no further!
