Owners Comments
Purchased by her current owner in 2017, "Bobbin" has proved to be a sound reliable family sailing boat with good accommodation. Her engine is excellent and pushes the boat along at around 5 knots, her sails are very good and the lines are led aft to the cockpit. A good clean and tidy example, ashore at present for ease of viewing.
