Swift 18 Trailer Sailer For Sale

01 July 2022

Sail 4 Cancer has owned ‘Little Rascal’, a Swift 18 trailer sailer for about a year. She was donated to the charity by an incredibly kind and generous man called Tom. Our plan was to deploy Little Rascal on Lake Windermere as a respite platform, specifically to take people recovering from cancer sailing.

Like all Sail 4 Cancer sailing trips, the focus is very much placed on enjoyment, teamwork and learning a new skill. Our days out, which always include a stop for a warm cuppa and a slice of cake, give people something tangible to look foward to. They enable people to switch off and forget their worries for a day and provide valuabe memories.

However, with the departure of our Chief Sailing Instructor from Windermere and the immense affect the pandemic has had on the charity’s finances, the decision has been made to sell this lovely little boat to raise some much needed funds to keep the charity afloat (if you’ll excuse the pun!)

Priced for a quick sale, Little Rascal is being sold for £2,500 along with a fully serviced road trailer. The boat does need a little bit of cosmetic work but it will clean up really well and you should be able to use it this season.

The Swift 18 is a great little single handed sailing boat / small yacht and easy to sail thanks to its dinghy style rigging. Road trailer and sails are included.

The yacht is in Bowness-on-Windermere (Lake Windermere) and needs to be moved by the end of September 2022 at the latest.

This yacht is now sold – all proceeds going to Sail 4 Cancer.
