Remarks :SPRINGTIME is a beautiful wooden ketch from the drawing board of Holman and Pye. Built in 1961 she is constructed from Mahogany and Pitch Pine.
This Holman and Pye ketch has blossomed in nine years of her current ownership and she benefits hugely from a relatively new engine (2009) and electronics. She has been re-fitted over a lengthy period and has a charming and cosy living space below, which is surprisingly light and spacious.

This Holman and Pye ketch has blossomed in nine years of her current ownership and she benefits hugely from a relatively new engine (2009) and electronics. She has been re-fitted over a lengthy period and has a charming and cosy living space below, which is surprisingly light and spacious. New upholstery and some other up to date creature comforts make this an attractive option for the connoisseur that enjoys classic yacht sailing whilst also requiring those all important comforts.
She has gorgeous and well proportioned lines and delightful wide side decks for sprinting fore and aft with minimal tripping hazards. Up the anchor and set the sails and they will discover what SPRINGTIME is really all about.
