Built 1957 by GR Bligh of West Mersea. Standard wooden clinker construction known to have been stripped and re-fixed with epoxy and redecked circa 2010. New shape aluminium Z-spar mast, galvanised launching trolley, full set of sails.

Endeavour was donated to the BODOA by Nick Readings in 2019 and has been used periodically since that time as a loan boat. She has not raced since Covid and is laid up in the Colne Yacht Club yard. Whilst in need of refit work she is in sailable condition and is actively up for sale at a very preferential price for anyone who will refit her and race her from Brightlingsea – see our For Sale page for details.
