WHITE BEAR







White Bear, a Cygnus GM32 trawler yacht is based on the very successful Cygnus GM32 fishing boat hull design. Just a few cruising boat variations of this hull design were built. This boat has been sailed over the years through the French canals, the Med, Greece and Scotland until 2011, when it was transported to Croatia for ten years before returning to Scotland in 2021. 

Seen here arriving at Girvan Harbour.
