Broker's Comments

The Falmouth Gypsy started out as a totally plywood version known as the Gypsy 1. This was short-lived as fibreglass was being experimented with and shortly after this the Gypsy 2 was produced in GRP, although it retained a wood/plywood deck. This is a very pretty example of a traditional bilge keeled cruiser. She looks good, has a recent good survey, a well maintained motor and new mainsail. Ideal to cut your sailing teeth on or as a retirement present for yourself.
