Is that bigish yacht still there with the funny A frame metal rig and a kind of dome to look out of? If so what is the history?
 
I know the one you mean but I haven't seen it for a while , maybe years?

It was for sale on Boatshed.com for quite a while - I can only assume that it has now been sold. Was a steel boat, designed as a trade wind sailer. Interior was a bit of a home fit but probably quite a strong capable boat. Just had a very unconventional rig.
 
The last time I saw that vessel was in Portishead boat yard a year or so ago, she was being refitted professionally at no expense spared by a couple of doctors or so I was told!

I wouldn't be surprised if they got her at a competitive price, and so had no issues in spending £20k or so bringing her up to the spec that they wanted.

Do you know if the rig was replaced as part of the refit?
