Description

Classic Gentleman’s Wooden Motor Yacht: Lady Kathryn. Built in 1929, this exquisite classic twin-screw wooden motor yacht, known as Lady Kathryn, is rich in history. Requisitioned by the Admiralty in 1940, it is widely believed to have played a role in the Dunkirk evacuation during Operation Dynamo that same year. The vessel is powered by twin Perkins P6 130HP diesel engines and offers a total of 4 berths, with one as a double berth and a further 2 single berths over two cabins. The stern of the vessel offers a galley leading on to a large room that currently has a dining table for at least 6 people. The vessel offers a unique opportunity to own part of history as well as make a stunning cruising motorboat or live aboard. The vessel has also started in the remake of Whisky Galore 2014 as the customs cutter.
