History

IMPALA is largely original, although her petrol engines have been replaced with diesel.  She moved to Dartmouth in 1937, then to Conway in 1942, Surrey in 1982 and subsequently Liverpool where she is now based.  She is undergoing minor restoration.

She was owned by a marine engineer called John Duffy from the 80's. She sailed out of Inchinnan Cruising club near Glasgow. In the summer she was kept at Portincaple. Mr Duffy extensively cruised her up and down the western Isle's and Clyde until health prevented him from doing so.
