History
Built in 1958 by amateur builder, Mr R Vickery to a design by Jack Holt. ELENA may be the sole survivor of theYachting World Rambler class. The boat has had a professional overhaul in 2000 in which the side decks were replaced. There have also been some minor modifications and replacement of chainplates and Wykeham-Martin Furling gear.
