Broker's Comments

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
This is an interesting boat, based on the traditional dutch design , known as a botter, her pram bow means she takes the ground so nosing onto the bank is easy. She was designed in 1956, and has pleasing lines still with her original Sab engine. She was built in the well known yard of Frank Wright esq at Woodbridge for a very specific purpose that being the demonstration of the revolutionary folding prop which is now a familiar benefit. The present owner saved and renovated her so whilst she needs some attention it is not major and she would make an interesting boat to service your mooring or perhaps as a family boat for weekend picnics or simply messing about in boats.
