Historic sailing yacht built by FC Mitchell, Poole, based on a Walter Rayner design.
Equipped with an 80hp engine, this sailboat does not forgo its 'Power Sailor' side, allowing it to sail upwind without difficulty.
The secure central cockpit houses a navigation station and the steering wheel, ensuring watchkeeping in all weather conditions.
This sailboat can be easily handled single-handed or with a small crew.
An ocean-going yacht, it offers good privacy with its two cabins equipped with toilets and showers.
The GRP hull is moulded according to specification 100 A1 under Lloyds supervision and the boat has proven itself at sea, is solidly built, and is a thoroughly successful cruising yacht.
Its rudder is well positioned behind the large three-blade propeller (steering is provided by Whitlock gear and engine control by a Morse monolever), guaranteeing impressive engine handling, although its long keel requires particular skill when sailing astern, regardless of the breeze.
The presented boat is in good condition for its age, a major refit (hull and deck paintwork, electronics) has already been done. It is regularly monitored and maintained by its passionate owner.
