YM Senior - Lapwing

YM Senior - YMS 473 Lapwing

Lapwing is a 2 berth Yachting Monthly Senior. 16' LOA, 3' draft, fin keel, berbudian sloop rig - roller reefing main. Tabernacle for easy mast lowering. Her inventory includes: Sails made 1994 by Suffolk Sails, still in good condition. Bilge pump. Chemical toilet. Berth cushions 1999 by Jeckells, in excellent clean condition, Fitted varnished mahogany lockers with space for cooker. Mud weight and fenders. Road trailer, lighting board, ladder.

We do not know when she was built or by whom, but her sail number 473 suggests the 1960s.

Most Seniors have bilge keels or centreboards, but Lapwing has a fin keel and sails very well indeed. Her keel is made of solid mahogany with a cast lead ballast, and is held on by massive bronze bolts. She is planked in very nice mahogany marine ply over mahogany frames. Her spars are spruce.

Lapwing is part way through a re-fit and will need some work done by a competent carpenter or boatbuilder: The joint between coachroof and foredeck was not good. Therefore, a deck beam and the tabernacle have been taken off in preparation for re-fixing along with an additional beam (provided) to give increased mast support. There are also some more minor repairs that will need doing.

Price £595  including road trailer.
