Owners Comments

"Panjandrum" has been in current family ownership since 2002, latterly being used as a weekend retreat, rather than being sailed. She was surveyed before the 2026 season and a copy of the report is available on request. She's rather a project boat, her engine appears seized and her 12v batteries require replacement.
