Name Gwenna

Built in 1935 by Southampton Launch & Boat Co., GWENNA is a twin screw cruising yacht of timber construction, carvel built with twin Ford diesel engines of 3.6 litre each. 

Bought by Group Capt. J.P. Cecil-Wright in the late 50’s early 60’s, she was kept at Keyhaven on the south coast, and was used to take family and friends on cruises around the south coast, to the Channel Islands and Europe.

She is a classic design and believed to be the only remaining example of a vessel significant to the Southampton area constructed at that time.

In 2008 she was moved from Newhaven to Sovereign Harbour, Eastbourne, to undergo a refit.
