A classic, safe and seaworthy yacht, Dolphin has only had two owners since she was launched in 1984. She has been very well maintained and upgraded so that today you can sail her away without any concern or major re-fitting required. Being built of GRP throughout she is completely dry at all times unlike the composite Twisters that can suffer from leaks through the deck to coachroof joint. Among the upgraded features are; a new Beta 14 diesel engine in 2017 with less than 100 hours on the clock, new wiring loom, stern gear & antisyphon exhaust system, a Darglow featherstream propeller for faster saililng, sea toilet and sea cocks renewed and serviced regularly, a brand new fully laminated tiller, new Allspars boom (2019), a bespoke aluminium bowsprit and brand new (2019 unused) top down furling asymetric spinnaker from Kemp Sails. Among the many accessories included is a tiller pilot, chart plotter, and 4 person inflatable dinghy (unused).
The original owners had the yatch until 2017. They purchased the moulds directly from Tyler Mouldings and then had her finished at Hartley Marine in Rochester, Kent. The underwater hull was epoxy resin coated in 1983 and as a result is in very good condition. All of the original paper work is available including the builder's certificate and proof of ownership and VAT paid. SSR number SSRI170605. Hull number T28/P.57. She is lying ashore at Ramsgate Harbour, Kent.
