BROKERS COMMENTS 

A robust vessel – as might be expected from the yard of Miller and Son on the Clyde and famous for their “Fifer” motor sailers - PARELLA typical of Clyde vessels of that era carries her lines with some elegance. She was recently restored to a high standard by Chantier Stagnol and provides substantial accommodation in the style more of a gentleman’s yacht than a working boat. The restorers have retained PARELLA’s authenticity, while integrating appropriate systems and the comforts expected of a more modern boat. With new engines and electrical systems, a newly refurbished bridge in particular, PARELLLA is sailing again to recall the era of her birth.  

CONSTRUCTION 

- American oak planking on oak frames
