Broker's Comments

The Popcorn 23 is 1/8 Mini Tonner with excellent design pedigree, they were originally designed by Judel and Vrolijk (top racing yacht designers!). This is the first Popcorn I have been aboard and they strike me as a great looking cruiser/racer - ideal for day/weekend sailing coupled with a touch of club racing if it takes your fancy. I believe the first ones were built in Switzerland, but we are pretty sure this is a UK built boat. We know Seamark Nunn of Felixstowe built around 7 of them in the early 1980's.
