Built by Silva Yates Plastics in Jersey to an Alan Buchanan design, the Channel Island 22 is a very popular workmanlike boat. She is easily handled and is especially noted for her sturdy sea-keeping abilities. An ideal small coastal cruiser: tough, fun, safe and capable. BILLY BLUE is a later example of the Channel Island 22 class built in 1989 with the twin-engine configuration. In recent ownerships she has benefitted from significant upgrading and refitting; highlights including:
