Additional Information:

Restoration project, hull only stripped out ready for repair. Considerable work required. Needs new sternpost, deck & bulwarks, some planking required, most frames are good.
We will only transfer ownership if we are satisfied that the purchaser has the relevant skills & facilities to complete the restoration. The boat must be removed by road from our boatyard within 3 weeks of purchase & the sale completed only after transport arrangements have been confirmed.
Betina was built in 1959 by Gerrard Brothers of Arbroath as a creel boat to be used out of Anstruther, registered number KY212. She was sold to Newhaven (Scotland) in 1961, registered in Leith. In 1980 she went south to Newhaven (Sussex) & eventually ended up in Faversham Kent.
You will appreciate that she has much historical importance & it is our aim to see that she is restored back to a good condition.
