Broker's Comments

Every so often I have the privilege to list a stunning restored classic boat with a very interesting provenance! This one is no exception! Apart from it's vital role in the Dunkirk action she has been owned by a well known TV show host. Hughie Green!
A1934 TRIPLE SCREW Motor yacht with a fantastic history including tragedy, celebrity, name changes and a commendable wartime record in Poole!
Completely restored over 5 years by the current owner which is a credit to his skill and resilience.

This stunning boat has been sailed both in the North Sea and the English Channel and handles very well in a heavy sea. With the benefit of three engines, 2 Perkins 4108 and a six cylinder Perkins 6384, she is very manoeuvrable and ideal for easy mooring!

A must see to fully appreciate and early viewing is recommended!

The current mooring may be available by arrangement with the Marina management!
