Temeraire of Lawling

£18,500

One Surveyor wrote "I would consider this to be the best example of a timber Twister that I have examined". Another recent surveyor stated "Someone looking for a wooden twister would certainly buy Temeraire".
After 18 years of no expense spared ownershipTemeraire of Lawling is looking for her next custodian, lots of history including pictures of her launch day 4th June 1966. A beautiful dry boat, bilges are always dry, ready to store the salad as her previous owner told me.
Temeraire was bulit with a small coach roof by the Cardinal Bros. which adds to the beauty of her lines and she always attracts complements on her travels.
