Glasfor was registered in 1967. Her first owner sold her in 1970 to Sir Goronwy Daniel, Principal of the University College of Wales, who replaced the engine with a larger (diesel) engine, and who explained in a letter to the present owner that ‘Glasfor’ is Welsh for ‘Blue Sea’. The boat was sold in 1976 to Henry Roberts, of Tarbert, Argyll. For the next seventeen years she was not sailed. In 1993 she was sold to the present owner. Since then she has been cruised extensively in the Scottish Highlands, in the Irish Sea and English Channel. She has never been raced. The yacht is fully equipped for short-handed or single-handed sailing.
