Hartley Scamp 14 ‘Lady Auka’
Ashore in Crawley, West Sussex
About her
‘Lady Auka’ is a 14-foot cabin cruiser, offered here complete and ready to tow. Designed by New Zealand naval architect Richard Hartley, these boats are a very popular self-built marine plywood and fibreglass construction, and are good for use as ski boats, fishing runarounds or for general leisure use.
The boat’s beam is 6’1″, and she will seat 4 in the cabin or 6 in the cockpit. Inside the cabin is a V-berth, shelved storage unit, and small marine toilet. Outside, the open aft cockpit features a dedicated outboard well, port-side steering wheel, and remote throttle/gear controls. The boat is also offered with the original Richard Hartley boat design drawings and building plans.
Previously licensed for the River Thames and also proven on coastal sea trips, ‘Lady Auka’ is a versatile, lightweight boat in solid overall condition. With a good clean and a light refresh, she would make an excellent project for the coming season.

Main Engine: Yamaha 25hp 2-stroke outboard mounted in the transom well and connected to the remote steering and throttle controls.
