We are sadly parting with our Sandpiper built for us in 2001 by Nick Newland of Swallow Boats. The Sandpiper is lively, fun and intriguing. She has a raked mast and an attractive sheer. Designed for either one or two people, with all controls at one's fingertips. She is very satisfying to sail with a lovely sense of speed as the narrow hull slices through waves. The sail design and leeboard give good performance to windward. Her light weight (16kg) and shallow draught means she is ideal for exploring less frequented waterways. She is also easily lifted and transported by roof rack.

http://www.swallowboats.co.uk/content/blogcategory/32/94/Our Sandpiper is in good condition and comes a main and asymmetric foresail plus two paddles. She is ready to sail.
In terms of fun, ease of use and amount of sailing time for small cost, the Sandpiper is difficult to beat.
Price: £550
