Description

PRICE REDUCED - Inviting Offers Laksfors III is a Historic race-boat that competed in the 1971 Cowes-Torquay-Cowes race. One owner in period and since then only in one family. In 1970, before VAT was introduced, this boat was built by W A Souter & Sons in Cowes, Isle of Wight, England using their famed cold-moulded technique to a Ray Hunt design for Mr William Govett. This is a turn-key opportunity. Now powered by twin 6 cylinder Yanmar turbo-charged diesel engines driving RTS drive-legs: About 345 hours since major over-haul of each engine.
