Broker's Comments
The Drascombe Lugger is considered one of the most versatile trailer-sailer boats of all time. Safe, stable, easy to launch and retrieve and great fun to sail.
"Sapphire" is a really interesting example. the hull was supplied by Churchhouse Boats with the rest of the construction, 'home built' to what appears to be a very high standard. Everywhere there are indications of 'only the best will do'. For example, the masts are made of carbon fibre, the standing rigging, dyneema and the R & J Sails (in excellent shape) battened and colour coded to match the hull.
There is electric, with onboard battery, panel and 12 volt socket. The forepeak converts to form a double berth, providing 'camping' style accommodation with ample stowage provided throughout.
The cockpit and camper covers have, at some stage been separated from the boat (the camper frame is intact and included). The boat has been dry stored but would benifit from a cover if exposed to the elements for any length of time.
Road trailer and 2.3hp Honda outboard are included with the sale, making this an attractive package, ready for use this summer.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
