Description

'Arctic Tern' is a well-maintained example of the Southerly 115 MkIV, having had a thorough refit by Northshore in 2023 after her current owner purchased her. Work included blasting the underwater surfaces, Coppercoating the hull and repainting the keel, as well as renewing the standing rigging, servicing the seacocks and any other jobs raised by the survey. At the same time, a new Raymarine Axiom plotter was installed at the helm with an AIS transponder and a new Rutland wind generator installed.
