We strongly advise any prospective purchaser to employ the services of a surveyor, further more we will remove any boats from our listing that are not scrupulously honestly advertised.
Any boat advertised as 'ready to sail' must be in top condition. Failure to be 100% in any advert, and it will be withdrawn. We have recently heard of a very distressing tale and never wish this to be repeated.

John, I have a brand new 2" No.8 Bronze, Flat Head screw from an Eventide - does this constitute ownership?
Sorry Folks, yes it is a joke, this is what the ex owners in the old eoa actually resorted to to stay in charge! Sad Eh! Maybe by placing this here we can shame them into either restoring them or passing them to someone who is willing to!

For Sale . "Iduna" an M.G. Cockler
25 ft long, 4 berth, mahogany on oak hull, laid decks. Owned by me for 10 years, I spent a lot of time and money on restoration, mainly rebuilding cockpit area, 6 strakes of planking to the topsides and replacing the transom, which had suffered from fresh water damage, after being left on a beach berth uncovered for some years. This work carried out by a shipwright, and at the time the cockpit was enlarged.
First trip was to Douarnenez for the Festival, and was used for local sailing for a few years. Later the c/b was giving trouble and I removed it and replaced the inner keel and some of the metal floors..
Retirement, a long period out of the country and other things taking up my time means the boat has been neglected and needs some TLC. Mast sails and rigging are currently off the boat and in store, tan main, a jib I had made and has had very little use, and some odd sails I used to experiment with cutter rig.
Engine is a Stuart Sole diesel 10 hp. was working fine when laid up.
Full details and lots of photos of the rebuild and finished boat available, not digital I’m afraid !
Lying near Falmouth in Cornwall,
Work needed is more DIY and cosmetic than needing boatbuilding skills.
Price negotiable on £2500. Contact John Haswell on 07855358223,

Eventide 24 'Blue Dancer'
The Eventide 24 ' Blue Dancer is available to anyone willing to take on the finishing of the project. she is ply and the hull is in fair condition. Built in 1962, she may have the early lighter keel still, but anyone taking on this project would probably be sensible enough to want to remove the keel and bolts anyway, so adding weight and depth would not be a big problem. She still has paint on her.... No inboard, used to have an outboard in a well, (not to be recommended!) since removed. Needs bracket on stern maybe... or full conversion to inboard?
Sails and rigging available. Mast and boom freshly varnished, new bowsprit made.
donation wanted only...to local sailing club.

For Sale: Steel MG 31 ft Vulcan, Adora
Built of Corton steel by Kesteloo in Holland. The original ply coachroof and cockpit have recently been replaced in steel. The cockpit was re-designed to make her much safer sailing short-handed. The yacht is bilge keel making her a very versatile vessel having the ability for Blue Water cruising and venturing through canals of Europe is very suitable for a drying mooring. The yacht has been cruised widely in the Mediterranean for several years.
The accommodation comprises a fore cabin with double berth and a main saloon with one double and one single berth.
She is fitted with Perkins 4108 engine, which was re-conditioned by a previous owner about 10 years ago and has few running hours since. The engine has keel cooling making her ideal for shallow waters and canals. A re-conditioned Hurth gearbox has been installed. The engine temperature and oil pressure gauges need fitting.
The theme of the interior is classic in style with a number of antique (c. 1920) opening brass portholes having been fitted to the new coachroof sides.
An astrodome is fitted to the companionway hatch which provides good all round visibility.
The hull and superstructure is rust free and very sound. It would be difficult to find another vessel having steel in such a good condition. The exterior of the hull has been completely re-painted with two pack Jotun Hard Top. All new steel has been painted with Jotun Jotumastic primer and 6 coats of Jotun Hard Top.
The coachroof, decks and hull above waterline are fully insulated making her a warm boat in winter and cool during summer. A Taylors diesel heater is installed in the salon needing just one flue section and diesel supply to be fitted.
Tankage is approximately 50 gal water and 50 gal diesel. The water tank has recently been painted with a potable water paint.
A 50 metre length of 10mm calibrated galvanised chain is fitted with a 45 lb genuine CQR. A Danforth anchor is also aboard. A set of fenders, warps and sheets is provided.
The yacht is sold complete with a new main mast and an assortment of sails. An Air-X wind generator is mounted on the mizzen.
Although the yacht was extensively re-fitted several years ago there remains a small amount of work to complete. The yacht has full British Registry .
The yacht is ashore on the River Dart in Devon. The asking price is £27,750.

For Sale: GH 31 'North Star'.
Golden Hind 31 'North Star' for sale.
This boat was rebuilt by Golden Hind Marine in 2004-5. The boat was originally built in 1981 but had been laid up for 15 years after having spent only 5 seasons in the water.

Last one out of Golden Hind Marine, it has been fitted out by an architect to a very high standard including an unusual interior layout with polished maple and white paint, Beta Marine 28hp fresh water cooled engine with Aquadrive unit, Taylors cooker, Hydrovane self steering, coal stove, shower, holding tank, forward facing chart table, Yeoman plotter, tan sails etc etc. Full details can be seen atwww.goldenhind31forsale.co.ukThe website includes a history of the boat, a full description and inventory together with previous owners stories and many photos and details.

For Sale: Wild Duck‘Beautje’(steel) is for sale!
She can be admired in the photo gallery on the website. She was built in Holland in 1962 and I have sailed her now for 7 years. Because my children are growing up and keep getting bigger, I have decided to start looking for a somewhat bigger boat.
‘Beautje’ is in absolute mint condition as I have taken care of her very well in the past seven years. A new teak-deck was put on in 2005, the engine has been completely restored (a Bukh DV 10, very reliable diesel inboard engine), new sails in 2001, a brand new all-weather cover 2008, paintwork and varnish every year and she has never been outside / in the water during winter.
It's in one word a unique little boat with great sailing qualities that every body comments on in a positive way. Nothing comparable can be found, at least not in the Dutch waters!

For Sale: Rawanah
A one off design by MG for a friend. A description of a voyage by MG and friend from Oban to East Tarbert and back is contained in a chapter in his book "Little ships and shoal waters".
I bought her in 2000, she was in surprisingly good condition, largely due to her having been in the ownership of one family for 42 years.
During the last eight years I have voyaged extensively from bases in Scotland -the Outer and Inner Hebrides, Orkney and the Faroe Islands
Falmouth - The South coast and Scillies.
Bristol - Ireland three times including a circumnavigation in July 2008
She sails extremely well, hardly any wake, takes rough water and very rarely takes a wave aboard.
She stands up well to her sails due more to her full hull shape than to her ballast, in all the perfect cruising boat, but for those wanting to race she still has a reasonable turn of speed.
Dimensions
35’ on deck with 8’ bowsprit; 31’10" waterline; 10’ beam, 4’10" draft.
14 TM and 10 T displacement
3.5 tons iron ballast keel and internal lead ballast.
Her structure.
Built by Harry King of Pin Mill in 1935 so you would expect her to be of the highest standard.
A double ender with long keel. Rudder hung on near vertical sternpost.
Raised bulwarks, with a lot of open deck space on each side of cabin roof.
Main mast stepped on a false floor, Mizzen mast stepped on cockpit floor.
Slab reefing, though old roller reefing gear still in place and working on main.
Deck of good pitch pine now sheathed in fibreglass. No leaks!
Full length mostly pitch-pine planking, on sawn oak frames 2" x 1.5" at 8" centres.
Galvanized rigging all new in 2008.
New engine a 37.5 hp Beta installed 2004 – less than 1,000 hours on the clock – with new fuel tanks including a day tank. Capacity circa 130 litres. Good sized three bladed prop.
Internal
Delightful unspoilt cabin with two berths and table, drawers and stowage under and behind berths. Fore cabin with berth and pipe-cot, chains in forepeak. Hanging space. Separate heads with Baby Blake. Galley aft with modern 2 burner gas stove with grill and oven, with ¼ berth opposite.
Equipment
House and starter batteries; Depth sounder; Walker log; Radio; Navtec: Auto pilot. Life raft (four person)
Two piece tender sits on cabin top and converts into a easy to row skiff. Can also be sailed though sail needs some attention, being cut down by owner from an old dinghy sail.
Sail locker –dates are the year of manufacture as far as I can remember
