Designed by Kim Holman and built by Nicholson & Marshall (Yachthaven Ltd) of Hayling Island. These are capable and fast Cruiser Racers based on Kim Holmans own yacht 'Shaker' which he often referred to as his favourite ever design.  Very strongly built boats with excellent ballast ratio and a deep keel make for an excellent and well mannered sea boat.

Designed by Maurice Griffiths, this GRP example of the class was professionally built by Terry Erskine Yachts in 1976. A big volume, practical, safe and comfortable cruising boat, she has had only 2 owners since new and has been in the present ownership for over 26 years. Major refit around 2001 with new engine, systems, rig and interior. Well maintained since and used regularly for cruising from her Cornwall base. Sadly advancing years force her sale. Currently ashore and easy to view. A good honest boat.

A very tidy example of the Saxon class, designed by Buchanan and built by Priors in 1962 to Lloyds 100A1 classification. Mahogany on CRE frames with a sheathed plywood deck. Well maintained by some careful owners with a well documented history. 5 berths with good headroom, Perkins 30hp diesel, good sails and rig. A nicely designed and some would say perfect size family boat, easily handled and a joy to sail.

24' centreboard gaff cutter designed and built by Elkins of Christchurch in 1934. Major refit in 2009 included a new sheathed deck. Electric Saildrive fitted in 2017 gives 25 miles of range. Lifting coachroof and accompanying cockpit tent makes for a much bigger cabin when berthed up. Smart boat with lovely provenance and well maintained.

The second Vertue ever built, Sally II was launched in 1937 by Elkins who went on to become a prolific builder of Vertue yachts. Planked in pitch pine with bronze strap floors, lead keel and bronze keel bolts, all first class materials. Shipwright owned for 30 years she has a good 2019 survey and has been a reliable and safe cruising boat on the Scottish west coast for her owner. The Vertue is an iconic design from the 20th century, perhaps the most successful small cruising boat ever and this is one of the special and sought after early examples of which only 8 were built.

Laurent Giles Vertue V131 built by Robertsons of Woodbridge in 1965. In her early years she was sailed to South Africa via the Suez Canal and battered by severe storms in the Indian Ocean. Converted to a masthead sloop rig with alloy mast and boom while in South Africa, she was brought back to the UK in 1993. 4 berths plus heads and galley. Roller furling and self tailing winches.

The Pioneer 9 is a robust, seaworthy classic yacht designed for serious cruising and blue-water sailing, often praised for its solid build quality, stability in rough seas, and manageable sailing characteristics. Reviews highlight its strength, good performance for its size, and ability to handle heavy weather, making it a reliable choice for offshore voyages despite its age.
