Now if someone would build me one with a GF hull i'd have my cheque book out faster than you can say knife...

great song thanks! Subscribed.

I remember the Silver's yard at Rosneath/Clynder on the Gare Loch, McGruer were virtually next door. Silver built motor yachts and McGruer sailing yachts. They were both in production when I was a boy and I would look at the boats with envy from my clinker built gaff rigged dingy. Now the neighour is a bit more sinister, the UK atomic fleet is just along the Loch at Faslane.

Nice 😮

Here's another of those dreadful dream-killers. It's "been in a drydock for years"..."recently given an overhaul in present ownership...work now sadly come to a halt..." Same old story. Why? Either the dreamer ran out of money, or ran out of life. "A vast amount of time and money has gone into the boat in recent years..." Yep, that sounds par for the course. And vast amounts more need spending. "A new custodian is required..." to carry on dreaming, and squandering their time and money until they're alike exhausted, and the hulk passed like a curse to the next schmuck with a dream and a wad of savings. Boatyards love these hulks. Once a dreamer turns up and gets hooked, they underwrite indefinite hours of costly labour and a brisk turnover at the chandlery. And there's no shortage of enthusiastic encouragement and advice! When, it were better that the thing had long ago been hauled off to a derelict quarter of the yard, where abandoned engines lie rusting amongst rampant nettles, then a gallon of petrol poured through a porthole, followed by a struck match...

Anyone care to speculate on the ballpark refurb cost to finish her?

Fascinating boat. Fingers crossed someone comes along.

More videos on this one?

I really like this one.

She is a lovely old girl.

Loving the Perkins.

The interior design looks like a 1950s suburban tract house, with the pink porcelain. 🤣 I do actually like the boat in many ways; she just needs a bit of a surface makeover.

Gostaria de ver esse barco navegar ao sabor do vento,belo barco.

Very handsome vessel. The pink porcelain maybe period correct but doesn’t quite stand up to the more modern improvements. A wonderfully useful classic that has clearly been well looked after.

What kind of bottom paint do they use for parking in mud like that?

Lovely craft! It would be good to know who the sailmaker was for the newish mainsail.

Plank on edge.

Absolutely a treasure ..yet only fit for a dwarf crew with a chef doubling as crew massage therapist/ chiropractor..

A real beauty...gorgeous lines.

That’s a proper boat. I wish I lived near by and had the money. I’m slowly rebuilding an old boat in New York . Who made the roller fullers and the running back stay levers? Man am I jealous.

Price?

Beautiful!

If it IS for sale where IS it locataire and how much please

Thank you sir for a nice presentation. I enjoyed it. Please is there air conditioning for this yacht? Are the stabilizers functioning? What is the generator power please? /T hank you.

Dream boat...👋😀⛵️🇨🇭

Now that’s a lovely, well-kept, classic, wood motor yacht! Sympathetically renovated too.

Mas aonde que fica está belezura

Lovely vessel! 👏👌

Very nice sailboat ⛵ thank you .I really like it. Greetings from Providencia Santiago Chile

these heavy batteries should be bolted down

You have to sort your varnish Gys! The water gets in and you will not be able to get rid of the black stains.

How much well it cost to repair the teak deck

I always Love sailboat she looks so beautiful 🫶🏻

What a pretty little boat, small but perfectly formed.

Masterpiece!

Trés joli bateau , confortable et bien sur l·eau ...Bravo ...

What a beautiful sailboat

Quite simply the prettiest lines ever designed for sail, purposeful, rugged....stunning.

❤

Fantastic.

Man, this boat!...

One Very Serious Craft / Who ever owns this Craft must have good seaman ship skills. Made with Passion.

It’s like a Clyde puffer!😮

Why re all the beautiful, reasonably priced boats ALWAYS in the UK and never in the US! We have overpriced monstrosities or stripped down racing dinghies.

Очень интересное решение по туалету, да и все остальное.

Salty

This might just have snagged my vote for best 27ft steel sailboat ever. Wow! Super motivating as I begin my first steel boat ownership myself on the other side of the pond!

Das ist einen boot !😊 Great stuff !!

Great design!

Magnificent vessel.🌬⛵️⚓️
