Project Boat for Sale: 1973 Sir John Raster – Restoration Project Opportunity We are offering for sale the Sir John Raster, a distinguished 50-foot patrol craft originally commissioned in 1973 by the Berthon Boat Company of Lymington. Formerly serving as an East Coast Fisheries vessel, she represents a rare opportunity for maritime enthusiasts or professional restorers to complete a high-potential rebuild. This vessel suffered storm damage to the hull under the starboard engine. The hull was breached but the vessel did not sink. Vessel Specifications & Condition Construction: Iroko planking on Oak frames, built using Carvel Diagonal technique // Superstructure: Aluminium, with minor damage to the coach roof // Hull & Bilge: has been professionally restored to a very high standard by a professional boat builder; CAS-covered below the waterline from new.

Project Status, This vessel is being sold as an ongoing restoration project due to the owner’s retirement.
