arklight-ii-canoe-yawl-small

Robert Whitmore Jones is selling his 1936 canoe yawl Arklight II for £7500, or sensible offers.

Built by George Cardnell and sons at Maylandsea in Essex, Arklight II is said to be in sound condition and to sail well. Her hull is pitch pine planks on oak frames, with cabin and cockpit sides of mahogany.

Her paint, varnish and antifouling could all benefit from refreshing.

She has a recently (2011) installed secondhand Yanmar 1GM10 and is currently moored near Weston super Mare. If you’re interested, contact the Albert Strange Association and they’ll put you in touch with the owner.
