Broker's Comments

As you may guess these little craft got their name from delivering the post around the lochs a hundred years ago. The design has stood the test of time and they are shapely and stable with good sailing performance.

Rated category C for up to five people the Post Boat has built in buoyancy and is claimed unsinkable.

Easily handled gaff rig and in great condition. The hull looks pristine and with a touch of varnish she would look just like new.

"Character" she certainly has.
