Classic wooden sailing yacht for sale

One of the 11 boats built to this design by Peter Brett, the creator of the Rival range of yachts. The Dee 25 proved herself as very capable yacht with some notable performances in offshore yacht races in the 1960's, including the infamous 1965 Channel race that was hampered by severe weather. Several major periods of refit in recent years, all well documented. 5 berths with 6'2" headroom. Recently rot has been found in several topside planks and deck edge as well as the beamshelf on the starboard side. After many years of ownership the owner has decided he does not have the capability to take on this work and is selling the boat as a project for a nominal £1000. Currently ashore in a dry shed, she can easily be worked on in situ by a new owner, or moved by road to a new location.
