Broker's Comments

Designed to fulfil the needs of a robust, safe and seaworthy cruiser / motor sailer, the Mk II Falmouth Gypsy was made just as strong and sea kindly as her wooden predecessor, only this time in easier to maintain GRP using only Lloyds approved materials.

British built in a port steeped with traditional sail, she is a tough sea boat that sails well on all points. Her engine was state of the art back in 69 and is standing the test of time very well. I am told that she is still as strong and reliable as ever, with her single piston and huge flywheel.

The wide double sliding hatch was also very innovative and enables the cabin to convert into a 'sun saloon'.

The forward cabin is practical and has a manual sea toilet, hanging locker, sail rack and chain locker.

The galley area has no cooker fitted at the present time but there is space for a camping stove. A 12v cool box is included.

This vessel can sit upright on a drying mooring and her modest draft allows her to enjoy the shallower areas of estuaries, rivers and creeks.
