Yacht: Violet
Submit Information on this Yacht
Restored 1987 – 1991
“I have owned Violet since May 2013. In 2007 (I think) she had her keel, floor timbers and lower planks replaced (4 on each side). At that time she also had internal concrete ballast replaced with external lead ballast. This increased her draft to 7’. Also according to the scales on travel lifts, she weighs in at 26 tons”, Roger Lancaster
