V 141 Sarissa

Category:

Description

Sarissa was built for the Poole’s following the sale of their earlier Vertue Kukri V 75.  As she was in need of a major refit they decided to build from new, making use of Kea‘s drawings but modifying the construction and layout.  There must have been some quite major ammendments since the latter boat is an ‘ocean’ design with conventional carvel planking on frames, as well as having a totally different coachroof design, and layout below.

We hope to be able to show some more pictures of Sarissa in due course: she looks to be a beautiful boat!
