Description:

37’ bermudan sloop 12 ton Hillyard built in 1960 by David Hillyard of Littlehampton. Major refits in 1993 and 2004 covered a lot of serious jobs and were all well documented. Currently on the water but in need of some work to bring her back up to scratch. In the present ownership she has new sails (2015 AND 2020), standing rigging (2017), re-wired (2017), rebuilt engine (2022) and new navigation equipment (2019)Very practical and comfortable design of yacht with 6 good berths in 3 separate cabins and a large safe central birdpit. These boats are not going to win races but they will look after the crew and get them around in safety and comfort. This 12 ton model is far less common than some of the other Hillyards and is a good compromise of length and volume.
