This is the last of nineteen Sterlings built to Kim Holman's design, they are regarded as excellent cruising boats with good performance while still being easily handled and very capable. New rig inlcuding spars, rigging and sails first used in 2018. Yanmar 1GM engine rebuilt in 2019. Uprqaded interior with new stove and upholstery. 4 berths including a large 'harbour' double in the saloon. Nice example in fine fettle, priced to sell. "018 survey with full list of work done since that time.

One of the later Hillyard designs with a hard chine to increase internal volume. A very smart yacht, previous ownership for over 40 years, she was kept to a very high standard and that has continued with present owners. Perfect layout for a cruising couple with a large aft cabin with ensuite heads and a big double berth, sheltered cockpit, and saloon with 2 berths. Heads and shower forward with large storage space in the forepeak. Easily handled ketch rig and very reliable Mercedes OM636 diesel in tidy condition. A lovely little yacht that has clearly been well loved over the years.

Designed by Norman Dallimore and built by Kings of Burnham in 1934. Very elegant and beautiful yacht that has retained her shape. Major refit by current owner in 2000 with a new deck and interior amongst other jobs. 5 berths with a spacious cockpit, easily handled by one person if necessary. In commission this season but needing some upgrades this coming winter.

Designed by Fred Parker and built by the Sandbanks Yacht Company in 1948 as a comfortable coastal cruising boat. She is in effect a motor sailer but has a decent size rig and acceptable sailing performance. In current ownership since 2013, she has had a lot of professional refit work carried out including a complete new foredeck and many new planks. 2004 33hp Vetus diesel is in nice condition. 3 berths in simple accommodation. Her large aft cockpit is a lovely feature with easy access in and out of the accommodation. A pretty and practical yacht with a good maintenance history.

The 6th Peter Duck built by Porter and Haylett to the same well respected design. Not a fast boat, but very sturdy with lots of internal volume for their modest length. An easily handled split rig helped by a 35hp Beta engine makes for easy and simple cruising. 4 berths with good headroom, galley and separate heads. New engine installed in 2009, new main mast in 2011. The boat is looking a bit tired and is in need of new energy to bring her up to standard and undertake the necessary repairs.

Built in Malaysia to the plans of the William Atkin Eric design, this is a near sister ship to Suhali, Sir Robin Knox-Johnston's yacht in which he circumnavigated the globe. Built from Chengai, a very durable tropical hardwood, she had a major refit in 2015 with a new engine, spars and rigging. Now looking a bit neglected, she needs a new deck and a thorough overhaul. Great design with good quality materials, well worth the effort of refitting.

Inchcape 45 motor sailer, the very last example built, launched in 1989. Subjected to an intensive refit in present ownership since 2016 with improvements and upgrades to all areas of the vessel. Currently completed to the standards required for MCA Code of Practice Cat 1. Ford Mermaid 135hp diesel in excellent condition. 6 berths in two separate sleeping cabins plus 2 heads with showers. Hugely spacious interior for comfortable long term living. Easily handled rig with all new sails and rigging. A very tough sailing yacht capable of going anywhere in the world, fully equipped and absolutely ready to go. Perhaps an ideal sailing boat for live aboard cruising, why not work remotely from the comfort of a beautiful yacht.

Kim Holmans Stella needs little introduction, derived from the Folkboat but slightly larger all round, they have been raced and cruised successfully for over 60 years with an active fleet still on the east coast of the UK. This boat has been the beneficiary of meticulous maintenance by her experienced owner with plenty of upgrades in the last 10 years. She is largely original but with subtle alterations to improve her for racing. Probably one of the best examples available on the market, an honest and very smart boat at sensible money.

Ice Bird was Vertue No.45, built for Dr Joe Cunningham to serve as his mobile base in remote areas of New Foundland, providing medical services to the local community. This he did in the boat after sailing across the Atlantic via the Caribbean and the eastern USA. Her design differs slightly from the standard Vertue with an altered coachroof, slightly higher topsides and a 2 spreader cutter rig. Recently updated with some new sails and all new rigging in 2021. 2 berths with 6'3" headroom. Volvo MD7A 13hp diesel engine. A yacht rich in pedigree in history kept in smart and sound condition.

Built by the Bute Slip Dock Ltd in 1961 to an Alfred Mylne design. 5 berths with over 6' headroom, a surprisingly spacious boat with lovely lines and good sailing characteristics. Set up for short handed sailing, her masthead sloop rig is easy to handle even for one person. New mast from Collars in 2016. In need of work in the next ownership including repairs to the deck and a full cosmetic refit. A very elegant yacht, priced sensibly taking into account the work that is required.

Designed by Sydney Herreshoff and built by Port Hamble Ltd. Herreshoff aimed to design and small, fast and easily managed but very capable keel boat, and this is exactly what the Islander is. The boats were built here and shipped back to America due to lower production costs and very few examples remained in this country. Light enough to tow behind a moderate car at 1.25 tons, easy to single hand but with a large enough cockpit for a crew. The small cabin has space for 1 or 2 berths to allow weekend camping trips and an outboard mounted over the side is there as a reliable and simple back up. A beautiful looking boat in good sound condition, in commission and being used regularly this season.

Holman 26 built by Uphams in 1963. Recent major refit including new standing rigging, new running rigging, engine rebuild and new keel bolts in 2020. 4 berths with good headroom, galley and separate heads compartment. Yanmar 1GM had a thorough overhaul in 2020. This design is well known for good sailing characteristics and is easily handled, an ideal and cost effective way of getting the family afloat this year. The boat has been painted, antifouled and is ready to launch for the season.
