Our circumstances, as owners, have changed and we are not able us to use FALS CAPPA with any regularity. She is out of the water at the Elephant Boat Yard and available for inspection

We have had a Structural survey of Fals Cappa done for renewal insurance purposes in 2010. The survey indicated that FALS CAPPA is in sound condition in all regards, particulatly in relation to all the work we have completed over the years. However the surveyor did recommended a full osmosis treatment on the hull and rudder. We are aware that a full osmosis treatment is a costly process and have had some verbal quotes from local companies and we are prepared to reflect this in the asking price.

We have therefore lowered the price to £9950.00.

We feel that once the osmosis treatment is carried out she will be in a sound condition and ready for cruising for the next season.

Background:
Launched 1972 for American owner (hence the name) who kept her until 1988, for most of this period she was in the Mediterranean used for a period each summer. Brought back to the UK in 1987 and then sold.
1998-1995 two owners, vessel kept in Solent then the West Country.
Winter 1994/5 osmosis treatment at Totnes.
1995 into current ownership, survey showed her to be structurally sound etc. but cosmetically in need of a little TLC.
Since then much of the interior has been refurbished and she has generally had a thorough overhaul including a new engine in 2001.
She has been moored on the River Tamar cruising locally plus the Scillies, Eire, Channel Islands and North & South Brittany.
Sudden arrival of three children under 18 months has lead to need to remain ashore for a period and the impossibility of finding time to winter her fully - hence the sale.

PENOBSCOT is currently ashore at Tamar River Sailing Club, Plymouth
