Wooden Ships Comments
Built by Edwin Rowles of Pill in 1903 as a Bristol Channel Pilot Cutter. She was launched as Wave and built for Pilot Richard Case who was unfortunately drowned in 1906. She was converted to a yacht by Moodys in 1925 and renamed Peggy. Bought by the present owner in 1973, she underwent a major period of rebuilding between 1984 and 1986 where the majority of the hull planks and frames and were replaced as well as the deck. In 2004 she had a new keel section fitted with 17 new floors and keel bolts.
Although not in immaculate yacht like condition, she is a sound and solid sailing yacht with a rich and well documented history. The next owner may wish to improve the interior and the finish, or they may like to continue with her in the same vein as she has been for the last 40+ years where she has been a much loved family yacht that has been the catalyst for many adventures and holidays.
She was surveyed in 2018 and a copy of this report is available. She has won many races against other Pilot Cutters with numerous trophies including the "Cock of the Bristol Channel 2018". Priced sensibly to sell not because she is a tired old boat but because the owner wishes to see her in suitable new hands that will continue to cherish and maintain her as she deserves.
