Beautifully made example of these lovely boats. Good for rowing, sailing or pottering with an outboard (not supplied). 
Wood glued construction with varnished finish. Sail (Jeckells) and spars in excellent condition as little used. Wooden mast, boom with mainsheet, and "gaff" spar -all varnished.  Tiller, rudder and centreboard come  as part of the package. Pair of wooden oars and rowlocks included. Hull is in very good condition but would benefit from varnish touch-up in places. We painted the bottom to minimize fouling but the paint  is scuffed a little and needs touching up. We have bought 3 brass dinghy rubbing strips to protect the bottom of the hull when hauling her out of the water. They just need fitting. We have used her as a tender for our motor sailor and she towed well on the Thames estuary. Last year we used her to paddle around Little Venice when we lived on the Regent's canal so she is a versatile little craft. A change of boat means we no longer need her.
