Remarks

Similar in many respects to the Cornish Shrimper, the Norfolk Gypsy 20 is an extremely attractive, traditionally styled cruising yacht offering a low maintenance and seaworthy design ideal for exploring shallow waters, with her bilge runners enabling her to be beached or kept on a drying mooring without excessive heel. The Norfolk Gypsy is a very versatile, traditionally styled trailer sailer/yacht with a compact but very functional cabin, well equipped for two and with ample space for chart work and instruments, and a large deep and safe cockpit. Complete with a recently overhauled road trailer and new electrics, this example is now awaiting a new owner to enjoy and sail her!
