HISTORY OF OWNERSHIP

"Theola" was sailed by her original owners from Ipswich to the Med and cruised over many years.  Her second owner was Italian, he sold her to the 3rd owner in 1985 who sailed her across the Atlantic then returned to Germany and sold again in 1990.   Purchased by previous owners in 1998 who sailed her locally and to  to France, Holland and Belgium.  Her present owners purchased in 2024, and had work carried out to the interior and exterior to improve her appearance not long after purchase, this included repaint of the decks, sanding down woodwork around cockpit etc and generally uplifting the boat which had been sat around for a little while.  The owners decided to remove the mizzen mast to give easier movement on deck. The mizzen mast, boom, rigging, and sail are all in storage, and are available and included with the sale, but not fitted.  The owners have also removed the cooker and replaced this with a fridge, and fitted a microwave.
