DESCRIPTION

Wooden Ships Comments on this Hillyard 12 ton sloop 12 ton Hillyard built by Hillyards of Littlehampton in 1963 to the standard 12 ton design. Canoe stern with short overhangs and a centre cockpit giving a lot of internal volume and separate living and sleeping quarters which is very important for people wanting to spend extended periods aboard their yacht. Major refit in 2008 by the present owners when a new deck and whole new coachroof were fitted. She had a very thorough survey carried out in August 2018 and has been put ashore for the winter of 2018/2019 to have all the recommendations from the survey dealt with as well as attention to the paint and varnish. She is now looking very smart and tidy and is a well found yacht after extensive attention from professional shipwrights. Full details of the work carried out available on request. This is a nice and very solid example of one of Hillyards slightly larger boats, the 12 tonner offers a little more space than the 9 tonner and is that bit more comfortable for long distance cruising. 2018 survey available.   Length on Deck 36' Length Waterline 33' Beam 9'10" Draft 4'10" Thames Tonnage 12TM   Construction Planked in 1" mahogany all copper rivet fastened to steam bent oak timbers.
