Broker's Comments
This is one rare and lovely boat. An unusual motor version of the Falmouth Quay Punt with a long working pedigree. Now restored by a shipwright and ready for another eighty years of faithful service. If you are a doting Grandad, buy this boat and take all the grandchildren out on boat trips, enjoy picnic lunches in the vast cockpit and catch you supper on the way home. The boat is still having a few details finished including a hardwood instrument mount, heads, galley and forepeak berths. This work will progress quickly and I will take and publish additional photos to update these web pages.
Currently lying in Cornwall.
