European Grampians — Miss Observer

“Miss Observer” on visitor mooring in Crookhaven, Southern Ireland

Photo is of “Miss Observer” on visitor mooring in Crookhaven, Southern Ireland. From what I can make out I'm the third or fourth owner. She was built in Norfolk, England in 1978. The build quality was quite good, however I don't know how many were produced. There were some differences from previous models, one being the windows in the saloon area are the same size instead of one large and one small on either side. The interior was also changed, with the galley positioned over the engine and to port, and a berth to starboard. I have done a lot of work on her since I bought her to bring her up to spec. I find her an excellent boat so far and hope to keep her a long time.
