We are pleased to present 'SEA SWALLOW' a boat full of character. This Cheverton 27 was originally owned by Alan Coombes renowned for building 'Bembridge Swans' and 'Normandy Class' boats from the 1950's onwards. Mr Coombes purchased the hull of this Cheverton and fitted her out entirely himself creating an extended wheelhouse which allows for a useable and spacious saloon. Due to their use by the Royal Navy these boats are well renowned and sought after.

Due to their use by the Royal Navy these boats are well renowned and sought after. Well equipped with updated navigational equipment and well maintained inboard engines this boat is just in need of some gentle cosmetic TLC. Used regularly this season she is more than capable of being put top work and would make an excellent fishing boat or family cruiser. Available to view now by appointment at Conwy Marina.
