Thank you for viewing my listing. Please read the listing and view the pictures carefully.
Star SY0 8 inch blue pond yacht. Birkenhead , Wirral , nr. Liverpool.
As the yacht has yellow sails , I would say this yacht is approximately 35 years old.
In completely unused condition. The sails are clean and bright , and the metal work is untarnished.
It looks like it has just left the factory. Has its original brown wrapping paper.
A beautiful example of this little star from the Star factory.
Any light areas on the hull are just the reflection of the lights.
The rigging folds flat for when the yacht is not in use.
This famous , massively missed , factory closed its doors for the last time in the early 1990s.
Sold and sailed all across the UK and the world in their day.
Part of the seaside's charm to see these lovely Star yachts being displayed outside seaside kiosks ,
rubbing shoulders with crab lines, buckets and spades and saucy postcards.
They sail surprisingly well on the larger boating pools with their adjustable main sail and jib sail.
Enjoy some fun in the garden, seaside paddling pool, or just enjoy it as a display item.
No batteries are required ; Just enjoy some quiet nostalgic fun.
I do not use 'library' pictures. The item in the pictures is the item you will receive.
Unfortunately , the stand is not included.
I will post worldwide but please be aware it has become rather expensive , and please wait for an invoice before paying if buying from overseas, as I cannot refund the possible excess postage if you pay before receiving an invoice.
I fit ebay , the best I can , around my working life and family commitments. I will , in the vast majority of cases, post within 5 working days of payment. If you would like the item quicker , please message me , and I will endeavour to post quicker. In most cases , I use the cheapest insured service that Royal Mail offers , as I believe they offer the best balance of quality of service and cost.
If you require any more pictures or indeed any more information , please do not hesitate to contact me either through ebay or by phoning 01925 753047 or 07510 296953 and asking for Mike.
I live 5 to 10 minutes from junction 20 of the M6 , and 'pick up' is welcome.
