Brief History

'Whimaway' has been in the present ownership for over twenty years. During this time she has been moored at Oxford, Windsor, and in Yalding, Kent. She has cruised the complete length of the Thames from Lechlade to Teddington.

Although some attention to various details are required, as you would expect with any boat of this age, there is nothing that is not actually working and 'Whimaway' has had continual ongoing servicing that will ensure many more years of reliable service.

A nice genuine boat that is now offered for sale due to a change of circumstances.

New Boat Safety Certificate Valid until December 2026
