Broker's Comments
Designed by Maurice Griffiths – he dedicated a whole chapter to her in his book “Sixty Years a Yacht Designer” – and built by James N Miller and Sons in Fife, this yacht is a one-off classic. She was purpose built for a couple who for years had admired a 1926 built yacht called “Scoter” and asked Maurice to design their dream boat based on her.
The current owner has had a considerable amount of work completed on her over the last few years. There is additional work required to get her into top condition, so the likely new owner will be an enthusiast who is looking for a classic yacht and is prepared to invest in getting this work completed.
This boat has been viewed and photographed by Chris Allan of Boatshed Essex. Register or log in to see more photos of this boat. These boat details are subject to contract.
