Recent sails from Elvstrom, new keel bolts, floor bolts and much other work. she won the Concours d'Elegance at the 2022 Hamble Classics.

Traditional gaff cutter yacht for sale

Built in 1905 by Ashton and Kilner of Poole, launched as a yacht for her first owner. In 1911 she was purchased by a Henry Carson and he cruised the boat extensively up to Russia and around the Mediterranean, voyages that were written about extensively in Yachting Monthly and the Cruising Association logs of the time. Purchased by the current owners in 1983, major repairs have been undertaken over the years including new planking and framing, new cockpit, all new interior and a new rig. Although only 26' LOD she has the feel of a much larger yacht and is certainly a comfortable, capable and elegant cruising yacht that appears to be in fine fettle as a result of her current long and careful ownership.

Major refit in early 2000's with new rig, systems and interior overhaul. More recently painted and varnished by Berthon.

The large cockpit with enclosed cockpit tent and cavernous interior make them an excellent cruising yacht. The rig is easily handled, aided by a pair of electric Anderson winches, and the shallow draft of only 4' with the centreboard up allows access to areas other similar size boats cannot go.
