History
WINGLETANG is a 22'3'' centreboard Bermudan sloop with Norwegian stern, suitable for coastal cruising with 2 adults and up to 2 children. The owner believes that about 40 of this class were built from 1952 onwards by Chas. A Purbrook at his yard in Christchurch but this boat is unique in that her topsides are of teak instead of the usual mahogany. The previous owner had major refurbishment carried out, including a new Yanmar diesel engine and rewiring the internal fittings. 9/11/2013 NRJ
