McGruer Alfred Mylne Glen-Coats Gaff Sloop

From Glen-Coats and McGruer in 1926, totally restored in this ownership - she has proven herself to be an astonishing success on the Mediterranean classic regatta circuit. She is now in the UK and is laid up under cover and is sparkling. She is VAT paid in the UK or in Europe depending on your preference. Priced to sell, she is very special.
