Norfolk Gypsy
My involvement with Charlie Ward goes back to 1989 with the design of the popular 20ft Norfolk Gypsy. In subsequent years she was followed by the 13ft Urchin, and 25ft Smuggler, and then the steel sailing barge "Juno", launched in 2000. From 2008 the Norfolk range will be handled by Neil Thompson Boats Ltd. who have worked closely with Charlie Ward in recent years.
The 45ft "Juno" is an East Coast barge yacht aesthetically based closely on the Thames barge. This wonderful vessel is currently used by Charlie for charter work on the North Norfolk coast and is admired by all who see her.
