12’ Motor launch                                                                                                                  A rare and exceptionally fine little motor launch probably built pre-war as a tender to hang in davits from a large motor yacht. The design and quality of the work ressembles a Camper and Nicholson build. Carvel planked, tight seamed, mahogany varnished inside, painted dark maroon outside, all copper fastened to small section steamed oak timbers. Varnished fore and aft decks. Rowlocks on the gunnels Varnished gratings for the sole boards.   Stuart Turner single cylinder sea water cooled 4.5 hp petrol engine with usual Stuart Turner ahead and astern gear to conventional shaft drive gives a cruising speed of 5knts Electric start with a dynastart and 12v battery under the aft thwart. Hand start option Petrol tank under the fore deck in a closed forward locker.   Original bronze wheel mounted midships port side with cables to the transom-hung rudder.   Fine original bronze and chromed fittings including a very unusual combined  port and stbd chromed navigation light on the fore deck. Sprayhood forward gives shelter to passengers. Road trailer.   This is an absolute gem of a boat.
