>>> REDUCED FOR QUICK SALE<<<<
Selling my immaculate 60ft trad Piper.
Built by Simon Piper and professionally fitted out in 2011, with a complete repaint (Craftmaster paints) and blacking in 2023/24.
Gwenhwyfar is set up for either continuous cruising (Beta Marine 43 engine, 500w solar, 4 x Lucas sealed 110AH leisure batteries) or permanent mooring.
She has a spacious, airy and open plan kitchen/living room with a newly fitted large (110 x 80cm) hatch (designed, built and fitted in 2023 by Martin Kedian - double glazed and lined with American oak). The engine room, bedroom and bathroom are generously proportioned, each offering ample amounts of storage space.
Gwenhwyfar was designed to specific dimensions and includes a 6ft length cratch area (complete with cratch cover) to offer an additional indoor/outdoor living space.
‘Gwen’ has been an exceptional home but with a growing family I have committed to purchasing a much wider boat. She is ready and waiting for a new chapter and new adventures!
