Broker's Comments

These smaller Hillyards are lovely little boats and are definitely part of British cruising history. Extensive re building of this boat offers a strong vessel which could do with some finishing and enhancing down below. Practical centre cockpit layout for comfortable cruising. These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
