Description

The yacht designer Albert Strange requires little introduction within the wooden boat world. His beautiful designs are well known for their sea-keeping abilities and elegant canoe sterns, attracting even more attention in recent years thanks to the effort of Leo Sampson and his full rebuild of the yacht "Tally Ho". Built-in 2004 by Fabian Bush "Constance" is an Albert Strange design that was never built within his lifetime, this attractive little daysailer will certainly turn heads as well as providing endless fun and safe sailing for her new owner.
