Boat OverviewThis is a unique opportunity to buy an extremely rare (thought to be the only one surviving) Johnson & Jago runabout boat. Built in 1946 in Leigh-on-Sea and restored 2017-2024.Usage and FeaturesOriginally bought to be a Thames runabout, the current owner decided that she needed to be brought back to her former glory and made suitable and more usable. If you want to be part of the classic boat movement at a relatively low entry point, then Cipressi could be the right boat for you. It is an ideal and very sweet little craft, perfect for summer days on the river, either exploring with a picnic basket in hand or as a traditional ride to the many watering holes along the Thames reaches. Her shallow draft allows for ease of mooring and seats 5 easily for those perfect family day out.Restoration Details A new original engine was commissioned, built, and installed. All hull work completed in the meantime. Bilges freshly painted. Hull varnished. Anti-fouled. New windscreen. Navigation lights. Internal lights. USB sockets sympathetically fitted.
This makes her an extremely reliable and usable boat. She has a fresh Boat Safety Scheme Certificate valid until 2028, so she meets all requirements for the inland waterways and is ready to sail away.Viewing InformationIf you are interested in Cipressi, she is offered for sale to a good home.
