Mellitus ? a well-cared for Southerly 115 Mk1 now looking for a new owner who will be able to enjoy getting her back on the water. The 115 Mk1 has a comfortable living space, and is a highly regarded versatile lifting keel cruiser. The central cockpit and interior helm station make it well suited to whatever conditions are thrown at you. A lifting keel allows access to shallows, so extremely suitable for East Anglian waters or further afield. Mellitus benefits from a full keel refurbishment in 2023, although she will need some attention across the navigation, rigging and deck equipment to get her fully ready for being back in the water.
