It was a pleasure to Survey White Moth today. She is a lovely old Yacht, and has great charm and character. She is one of the later wherry yachts to be completed, and she is a sister vessel to Olive and Norada. She is restored to full sailing order (with a few mod cons added!) and has been used for charter work since 1993, latterly with the Norfolk Broads Yachting Company.
Built in 1915 by Ernest Collins of Wroxham, WHITE MOTH is the last wherry yacht ever built. She was first sailed as a private yacht until being brought back into the Ernest Collins fleet in 1921, remaining there until 1956 when she was hired out as a houseboat.
