The Truscott Family Launch is a vintage motor launch with an original swamp cedar hull. The boat has been carefully restored using natural materials reflecting the Truscott catalogue illustrations of the day. This is rare watercraft and an opportunity to purchase what is probably the second oldest working motor launch in Europe. The engine runs, the fittings are all nickel plated, the custom-built trailer tows the boat smoothly, and accessories include period oil cans, flag staffs, a tubular cover support frame, photographs of the restoration and archival materials. This boat was awarded the Transport Trusts Restoration Award in 2012 at the Brooklands Museum in Waybridge, UK.
