OWNERS COMMENTS
"Jenny" was purchased by her present owners in June 2021 as their first family boat. She was initially berthed at Suffolk Yacht Harbour, then Tollesbury Marina and now at Titchmarsh. She has been used for coastal sailing, her owners describe her as fast and capable, often attracting admiring comments and curiosity due to her rarity in the UK. She is regretfully for sale due to time constraints and a larger boats they have inherited.
