Classic Yacht Boleh

[Halcyon Yachts]

Boleh was built in 1949 in Singapore. She is an absolute beauty and really is one of a kind. Based in Portsmouth she spends her time taking out various charity groups and local schools.

I made them a short promotional video:

They are always on the look out for new volunteers, sponsorship opportunities and donations etc.

Was she in Salcombe in the early 60s, Chinese lug rigged?

The name interests me - in Hong Kong, Boleh is the name of a type of Chinese tea more widely known as Pu'erh. In Hong Kong if you ask for tea without specifying further, you will almost always be served Boleh, though of course most Chinese distinguish teas the way we distinguish whisky or wine. Being married to a Chinese lady, I have slowly gained an appreciation of the various types of Chinese tea (the ubiquitous Jasmine Tea served in most UK chinese restaurants is almost unknown in China!)
