Remarks

This iconic Broads River Cruiser is the perfect all-rounder. A Three Rivers Race winner with an excellent racing record, she is equally comfortable for cruising. Built in 1905 by Alfred Collins, she has two cabins with four berths, a separate toilet compartment, a large cockpit and mainsheetman's hatch. She was restored at Southgates boatyard at Horning in 2018 with new cabin sides and front, tabernacle and stern combing. In the same ownership for the past 34 years, this is a true Broads classic!
