For Sale On eBay

Tinker Traveller Starting eBay bid £1500. Warlingham, Surrey. (ad placed 31/08/2010)

Tinker Traveller, sail number 7269, manufactured in 2002.  This boat comes with full sailing kit comprising jib, mainsail, daggerboard, tiller with extension and four part collapsible mast.  Original wooden oars with captive rowlocks.  Also includes blue sailing kit bag, repair kit, and boat cover for transporting the deflated hull. Excellent condition with the exception of a very small insubstantial crack in one of the floor boards which has been repaired and is water tight. Reluctant sale because it did such a good job of getting us onto the water that we now have a fleet of kayaks, dinghies and RIBs that it's just not getting the use it once did.  Tears will be shed! More details and photos on eBay. Starting eBay bid £1500.
