LM 27 “Siren”
A beautiful example, which has been totally rebuilt over the last three years.
“Siren”, formerly “Elisa III” was built in 1982 and spent the first twenty three years of her life as a Spanish registered boat sailing the seas off Majorca and Minorca. To the best of my knowledge she has had two previous owners. In 2005 her then owner, commenced a refit, having her stored ashore in Majorca and her hull epoxy coated by a specialist. She remained ashore in storage for the next five years and was subsequently shipped to the UK and put on the market. I purchased her as a project following a survey, which proved that whilst very tired, she was in essence a sound vessel.
She was shipped by road to Fowey in Cornwall and a total rebuild undertaken. Once totally stripped of fittings, her entire hull and topsides were re-gellcoated by a specialist to as-new condition. Original fittings were refurbished were possible, but her rebuild included a total rewire from scratch, a new Beta 35hp engine, aluminium windows made to special order in Denmark, replumbing,, new navigation and electrical hardware, new upholstery…. the list goes on and on and no mention has been made yet of the new furling gear or sails, the eberspacher heating, the superbly refinished varnished woodwork or the remodeled galley - a true labour of love. The original interior design has in the main been kept to, although various improvements have been to bring the vessel totally up to date. She has been back on the water for the last three seasons, but each winter, when she has been ashore, the rebuild and fitting of equipment has continued to complete her restoration.
“Siren” is in outstanding condition, sails beautifully and is only for sale due to my work commitments preventing her from being cruised more often. I have a full specification and photographs available and can be contacted by email: kevinfowey@yahoo.co.uk
