Pandore is a Twister 28 with a Tylers moulded hull, hull moulding number 28P75, fitted out by Uphams of Brixham in 1970. She features a white hull, cream coach roof, teak brightwork, and cabin. The same family has owned her since new, plus one other appreciative owner. The hull was reinforced to accommodate beaching legs when built (legs never used). She has always been winterised ashore under heavy-duty winter cover, with the engine annually winterised and serviced by the yard. New standing rigging was installed in 2018, along with a new cockpit boom tent and spray hood. A full summer cover extends from the cockpit to the fore hatch. Shore power and an automatic bilge pump were added in 2021, and a new stainless steel fuel tank was installed in 2023.
