David Cheverton was one of Robert Tucker’s rivals in the small boat market, and this design was one of the most popular small wooden boats of the early and mid-1960s. Built of mahogany, she had a
compact, easily-handled rig, and four berths in a practical cruising interior. A Mk II version, launched in 1966, had a more powerful rig and improved specification.
