Sold by Wooden Ships in 1991 for excellent long term owner with all survey recs carried out at that time. Regular yard maintenance. 1998 new engine installed with new stern gear. Hull wooded in 2001, repainted and revarnished.
Sold again by Wooden Ships in 2004 but change of domestic plans dictated an early sale to the present owner.
Very attractive and eye catching yacht. Enthusiastically and methodically up-dated in line with 2006 survey, revarnished using Tonkinoise and very much enjoyed in East Coast waters.
