Bruce Roberts Spray Class Yawl

Spray Class Yawl at Walton


More detail

I don’t think this beautiful Bruce Roberts Spray Class Yawl is for sale. She is a bit unusual, in that she would appear to have ports below the gunwale. Personally, I don’t like this because they constitute a weakness to the hull and they could be vulnerable when the boat heels and the sea conditions are rough.

Joshu Slocum's 'Spray'



Text for the Day

Ephesians 1:2 ‘Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.’

I think those "ports" are actually scuppers.
