Welcome to our auction for our sailing boat Mojave which we have enjoyed for the past four years. We have taken her across the channel a number of times and enjoy her as a family boat. She will look after you! She is simple to sail and would suit a young family or single handed creak hopper! Low reserve set.
This is the second posting for Mojave after the last auction finished without reaching our reserve. We have now posted again. This time with the minimum price we are willing to accept. Giving the buyer / bidder the knowledge that any bid above our starting price will be of an acceptable level to proceed. There is now no reserve price.

Owner was a RYA sailing instructor who used Mojave for all forms of RYA training.
He was also a prominent member of the Tomahawk Association. Mojave has benefited greatly by this careful owner who kept the boat up to date to complete his RYA training. Our reason for the sale of Mojave is that we now have an opportunity to purchase a much larger vessel. If she’s not sold we will be happy to continue and enjoy her to the full. We have owned her for five years and keep her on a pontoon mooring at Dover. Kent.
We enjoy coastal sailing including trips to France and nights away in Ramsgate. Mojave is ready to sail away, she is not a project boat. She’s in very good condition for her age. As with all boats, there is always something you can improve. We are very happy and would welcome any potential buyers to visit us and inspect Mojave.
We are sure the first to view her in person, will be her new owner. If you have not heard of a Tomahawk yacht, please have a look at the link below. There is a lot of information out there and as you can see they have a lot to offer and they hold their value. Being a Bilge keel, she will sit on the mud, or sand, or is equally at home tied up to a mooring. http://tomahawk25.co.uk/? Page_id=502 The Boat.
