Broker's Comments

This Falmouth Gypsy is the best example yet that I have personally witnessed. A jaunty and brave little boat from a bye-gone era perhaps, but one with years of life ,fun and voyaging left in her. Ideally suited to 'Swallows and Amazons Adventures' in tidal waters, especially our very own 'Secret Waterway' yet with the capability for more serious passage making in the right hands. She has been clearly loved and maintained with substantial renewals - sails, windows, upholstery to name but a few. If you are looking for a traditional yacht, something a little different to the run of the mill mass produced offerings, come and have a look!
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: I photographed her in the late afternoon drizzle of 14th December, hence I was reluctant to completely remove her cockpit covers. Some better photo's to follow in the New Year, if she remains unsold! Note: New photo's added, some old ones removed 11/4/16!
