For sale only because (Having finally been able to sort my deepwater mooring!)  I have brought what is essentially the 26ft version of this boat, BC 001 the 2013 pre-production/prototype BC26. This has the relatively smaller cabin, bigger cockpit (plus some very welcome additional deck space)  that we need.

Note. Spray hood shown here in "sunshade mode" on the hottest day of the year! Boat beached to allow easy swimming.

Many apologies to those enquiring and seeking more photos.
I will do asap.

Life (including the the early arrival of a new grandson) is getting in the way atm!
Please bear with me.

Meanwhile some to show Swallow supplied (Rain n Sun) mooring cover.
Expensive, but good quality, and very effective in protecting the boat, contents of the cockpit and stowed mizzen mast/sail.

Ps seagulls (especially the little blackfaced ones) can be a problem here. Hence the plethora of deterrent devices! Luckily, they generally prefer a dark colour,  RHIB if available and leave us "Yots" alone.

This boat is now sold, to a local buyer, and a deposit paid.

Plans laid for boat to move to the Roseland area of Cornwall.
