A superb, practical, GRP family motorsailer with all the refinements of a larger boat. Lying River Yealm, Devon. 4 births with convertible saloon table, Volvo diesel inboard engine, Jabsco Twistlock sea toilet, twin hob galley with sink and storage, solar power twin battery bank charger - see full list below. Tilly is a lovely small yacht, designed with great use of space and fitted with all the mod cons normally associated with larger boats. She was designed and built by Norman Pearn of Loo in the early 1970's. She is a well laid out, well equipped, shallow draught (bilge keels) motorsailer with furling genoa, roller reefing main and 10hp Volvo diesel inboard. She's a great family adventure boat, ideal for weekend trips along the coast as well as exploring shallow waters and tidal creeks. She has a 2' draught with twin bilge keels and long centre keel with concrete ballast and a water ballast tank under the cabin sole.

One baby stay has pulled out of the feral that connects it to the mast so that needs fixing. The removable slatted cockpit floor board needs some wood replacing. Other than that she just needs cleaning, tidying, anti-fowling and general maintenance. The successful bidder will be required to pay a deposit via paypal at the end of the auction and must take the boat away within 7 days. The balance to be paid in cash on collection. I reserve the right to end the auction early if the boat sells by other means. Happy bidding!
