OUR REF. † AYB00990
GENERAL
This is a very rare boat! She has had one private owner who trailer sailed her for the first six seasons until 2010. (Most Longboats end up at Activity centres at some point!) Then he retired and bought a cruising yacht laying-up the Longboat (Very well) under covers in a barn - in the hope of getting back into open boat sailing! After 14 years this hasn’t happened hence the reason for sale!
She is in beautiful condition and looks like a two year old boat at most!
She is rated to carry 10 persons, Category C of the Recreational Craft Directive. She has increased buoyancy over pre- 1998 Longboats. You would not be disappointed! (The masts/spars are still in the original polythene!)
