Maurice Griffiths Tidewater built by Whistocks of Woodbridge in 1974. Iroko hull on steam bent oak timbers, Perkins 50hp diesel, bermudan cutter rig on a deck stepped aluminium mast in a tabernacle. Grifiths wasd a prolific designer, drawing many small boats that made yachting available to ordinary folk. The tidewater is one of his signature designs, spacious and comfortable with 6 berths, good sailing performance and importantly able to take the ground. This is a super little yacht in great condition, very sensibly priced and ready to go cruising this season.
Gaff cutter based on the Isles of Scilly pilot cutters, built by Luke Powell in 2006. One of 8 similar yachts built by Luke, several of which operate as charter yachts with considerable success. These boats have gained a reputation for speed, beauty and quality of craftsmanship. Very heavily built, 8 berths, Beta engine, lots of deck space. A superb powerful gaffer which is in great condition. In 6 years of the present first ownership, she has proved to be an exceptionally seaworthy, safe and a successful charter boat operating in the harsh conditions of Scotland and Northern Isles

This ship has operated as a sailing traing vessel in UK waters for many years under the careful eye of her experienced owner/captain. She has been meticualously maintained and is ready to start work right away. As with all the Scandinavian boats, she is massively constructed, spacious, safe and easy on the eye, a great little charter or training ship.
A fantastic Colin Archer designed yacht, with lines refined by London marine architect WM McC. Meek. Relaunched in 2008 after a complete rebuild, this is now virtually a new boat in first class condition. Retaining many of her original features and fittings, the rebuild has produced a fine yacht. Immensely strong, powerful and very elegant.
An enormously powerful and capable cruising ketch with a impressive ocean racing and world cruising history. Fast, seaworthy and incredibly strong, this yacht has proved herself time and again over the years. 9 berths, large doghouse saloon, good engine. Brand new rig installed last year with all rigging and naviagtion equipment. A lot of boat for the money and a real blue water opportunity.
Bermudan cutter designed in the style of the famous Colin Archer yachts. Only 2 owners in her short 34 year life, this is an exceptional yacht in first class condition, very heavily built to withstand anything thrown at her. 4 berths, spacious saloon, a better more seaworthy boat you will not find.
Murray Peterson Schooner built in US in 1980. Extensively cruised in current ownership and is therefore very well equipped with a rich inventory. 7 berths, Detriot diesel, well proportioned gaff schooner rig with a large sail wardrobe. Lovely addition of a coarse yard for down wind sailing. Very smart boat with proven track record, absolutely ready to go.
Laurent Giles Dorus Mohr ketch, another superb powerful yacht from this famous yacht designer. The first of 4 to be built, the original construction of this yacht was no expense spared, all teak hull, decks and superstructure. 4 cylinder Gardner engine. 4 berths in 2 luxurious double cabins, plus settee berth in the saloon. Good 2010 survey report. This is a very comprehensively equipped yacht in extremely smart condition and ready to go. A better example you will not find.
