For Elspeth their one week Lugger charter last summer in 2022 with Dragon Drascombe, ‘sailing Luggers in the South Ionian Sea’, inspired her on getting back to the U.K. to pursue the challenge to look for a second hand boat, get it up to scratch and have it based on the south coast for their family hols.

Then began the emails and conversations between us both as to the merits of boats on the market. My preference has always been for late 1970 model Luggers, surprisingly Elspeth took this on board and bought a late 70’s boat ‘Nutmeg’ in February.

Following the first Newsletter of JLJ Elspeth got back to me and ordered one of our well tested boarding ladders. On 19 March 2023 Elspeth’s enthusiasm was evident ‘ Please May I order one of your splendid ladders’ !

So the order progressed immediately, all our joinery and fittings are off the shelf
The ladder was packed and dispatched on the 21st, being received on the 24th of February. Great turnaround and for Elspeth her complimentary remark was ‘ What a super ladder Phil, Thank You
So this is what we are about at JLJ.
Great quality Drascombe Joinery.
Unsurpassed prices
With great turnaround service
What more can I say.
