| Broker's Comments
This boat has been viewed and photographed by Steven of Boatshed Falmouth. Register or log in to see 45 more photos of this boat. Great lines, counter stern, classic looks - what more would you want ? Well this fine yacht does have more - where will you find a 38 footer with a four foot draft ? The lifting centreboard allows exploration of normally unreachable moorings. Lower the centreboard and you have a yacht that has fine windward performance. This boat has been meticulously put back together and is now reluctantly for sale since the owner is about to embark on the restoration of an ancient pile in France. If you were at the 1960 Earls Court Boat Show, you would have seen one of these hulls slung from the roof ! If you missed that, have a look at this one - you won't be disappointed.
