Come and take a look at this timeless Character Boats Post Boat. Built in 2007 this traditional deluxe model makes for a great day sailor and also comes with a Yamaha 2.5hp 4-stroke outboard for manoeuvring in marinas or for those days when the wind STOPS!
This one is a one-owner from new boat and it is clear that they have truly looked after it as it is presented in a lovely condition. They have been very careful and very caring owners so if you’re interested in buying this boat, it’s nice to know that it has been properly cared for.
Being rated a category C it is rated for up to 5 people so is perfect for those family days out in the harbour. And the owners inform us that it is a very stable boat to sail.
The Post boat is sitting on its purpose designed trailer making it easy for launching and recovering with the winch and guide rollers.
What the manufacturers have to say about this boat:
“History: The Post Boat is so named as in the early 1900’s the original craft was used by ‘Duncan The Post’ McLelland to deliver the post around the shores of the sea Loch working out of Ullapool in the Scottish Highlands
It has a foredeck hatch, narrow side deck and a full coaming around the cockpit which has deep and comfortable seating and a vast amount of locker space. The craft has full built-in rigid buoyancy and derives stability from the hull form and ballast encapsulated in the keel, giving exceptional stability afloat.”
