Laurent Giles Peter Duck ketch built as they all were by Porter & Haylett. A total of 38 boats were built to this design. This boat has been neglected after the death of her late owner. Prior to this she had been professionally maintained by a local shipwright with a recently fitted new Beta 28 diesel engine. The hull has dried out but work has been ongoing to slowly let the hull take up which is happening nicely. The rig is complete. Being sold at a very low cost as the family simply wish to move her on. This is not a major rebuild in any way, a new owner with some amateur skills and time could easily take on the required work.

Described as a 'fifty-fifty' yacht by her designer W.G. McBryde, this fine vessel cleverly blends the benefits of both the sailing boat and the motor yacht in a way that many motor sailers seem to miss. Her lines are exquisite and perfectly balanced with a tall ketch rig and central wheelhouse. Her spacious interior of 15 Thames Tons offers an aft cabin and stunning saloon with nearly all original joinery, plus a large heads compartment and galley in the bows. With twin engines she is easy to handle in close confines and cruises easily at 6 knots, but she also has remarkable sailing performance with tiller steering on the aft deck for those sunny days offering 'wind in the hair' sailing. A truly stunning yacht refurbished by her experienced and dedicated owners.

West Country gaff ketch built by Pearce of Looe in 1919. A yacht with a very interesting and varied history, she was owned by author George Millar and it is understood she was the first pleasure boat into Paris at the end of WWII, entertaining visiting royals aboard. Major refit work in the current and previous ownership including hull and deck repairs, engines rebuilt and overhauled rig. The project is not yet complete and the current owner is looking for the right person to take her and finish off the work. She has a very good pair of engines, all new wiring and overhauled rig ready to be stepped. she is dry and tight but the interior fit out needs completing. she is a big volume yacht with elegant lines and is a vessel worthy of the effort to get her finished and back to sea.

Built in Ireland to fishing vessel specifications, the build was completed by an RNLI engineer and she was launched in 1991. A very robust hull of iroko planking on oak frames. RNLI alloy wheelhouse gives her a purposeful look. Her hull shape is unusually fine in the ends meaning she sails surprisingly well, this is not a blunt fishing boat hull. Interior fit out gives 6 berths in 2 sleeping cabins plus the saloon. New Beta 90hp engine in 2022. A large rig gives her surprisingly good performance under sail. New rigging 2018 and recent sails. A fantastic boat for northern climates, capable of long distance expedition sailing. Excellent 2024 survey available.

One of the finest Miller Fifers afloat, maintained to a professional standard in recent 30 year ownership. 2023 upgrades including new rigging and nav gear. Millers were built to the lines of Scottish fishing boats with similar scantlings making them extremely strong, tough and capable yachts. New Holland 85hp diesel, giving 7 knots cruising speed. Recent sails and new standing rigging. 5 berths including a double with excellent headroom. A very capable but easily handled cruising boat in excellent condition, used for extended summer cruising every season. A very comfortable and easy cruising boat with a lot of space and volume for her length. November 2022 survey report available.
