Brigantia has been sold


Brigantia has been sold!

After giving us three years of fun and joy and looking after her novice crew, Brigantia went to pastures new in the Autumn of 2013. This blog remains as an archive of our activities on board.

Our new yacht, "Erbas" has her own Ships Log

Tuesday 20 August 2013

The deed, indeed the deeds, is/are done

Paperwork, paperwork, paperwork!

Finally, the loan agreement forms arrived in the post and we have written confirmation that we have the money to buy "Erbas". It's only taken seven days to reach us and it's a bitter irony that they enclose a first class reply paid envelope to speed the signed agreement back to them!

Never mind, the money should be in the bank by the end of the week

That settled, we could finally sign the purchase agreement and put it in the post committing us formally (as if we weren't already committed!) to purchase "Erbas" subject to survey within 14 days

Toby will hopefully get the survey done this week (we're not anticipating any surprises there) and "Erbas" should be ours for definite by the beginning of September

After careful consideration, Mark and Heather have (probably wisely) decided not to buy Brigantia and therefore ...

Brigantia is for sale!

The full spec is on Apolloduck at the above link and we're asking £3995 for her in sail away condition. We're very open to sensible offers as we'd rather move her on to new owners than have her hanging around needing to be maintained when we have the new boat to work on

However, she'll be reverting to her former name of "Anne" (or more fully if the new owner wishes "Anne of Arne") prior to sale as we shall be retaining the name Brigantia and transferring the name to "Erbas" before she is re-launched

It's all go innit?!
