PRICE REDUCED - I have now moved abroad and need to sell this boat. Robertson’s Kestrel 22 sailing yacht for sale. Owner’s move overseas forces very reluctant sale.

Robertson Kestrels were built in wood from the 1950s until late 1960s, the Kestrel was conceived as a small, inexpensive cruiser suitable for weekend sailing in shallow waters in the East of England. It has a lifting keel with a min... read more

Stepping aboard this vessel she struck me as having a very solid feel about her with her heavy steel construction. The owner is testament to her sea keeping abilities having sailed her back form Gibraltar where he first purchased her over 26 years ago along with having sailed her around the Azures, Portugal, France and the UK. Going down below I was very much taken by the solid feel of her build and the beautiful looking woodwork as can be seen from her pictures and video. Please contact me to arrange an early viewing.

We love the boat but only ever intended to keep her for an adventure. Now back to reality we are too busy to make the most of her.

Remarks : The International Dragon, first designed in 1929, does not need an introduction. WANDERER is a wonderful example and has had a very interesting and colourful life, starting in Denmark under the name of CRAZY VI, and then shipped to Hong Kong in the 1970’s, and renamed WANDERER. She raced successfully in and around Hong Kong, and benefitted from her Borresen pedigree, known for building quick and stiff boats. She was re-imported to the UK in 2007 and has since been epoxy sheathed with clear epoxy to minimize maintenance and weight and to maximize stiffness and performance, w... read more
