"MERVA" is a functional collector’s item. Built in B.C in 1932, her recent (’02) survey describes her as, “a fully registered Heritage Vessel – consistently well maintained and in exquisite “ Bristol” condition”. She truly must been seen to be appreciated. This vessel could not be replicated today – the woods used –fine grain old growth Fir and Burmese teak with steam bent clear Oak frames – are not found in today’s market. MERVA is elegant, fully operational and available immediately to whoever will be perhaps her 4 th owner.
