Broker's Comments
The eagle eyed among google fans will no doubt note that we have had this fine vessel through our hands before! (Indeed, only this morning I answered a keen enquirer after a National Squib, which we sold back in 2003, the internet is like that!)
The present owner of our Golden Hind has apparently spent most of the recent covid lockdowns living on her and improving her to the point that she is almost unrecognisable to the yacht which he purchased two years ago. The comments which I made at the time when we last listed her - " with GRP hull and wooden deck and coachroof. 'Ocean capable' in the right hands, many examples have indeed found those elusive palm fringed atolls and sun kissed anchorages, of which most of us just dream" still stand, however she is much more pleasing to the eye this time around.
