Construction
| Construction | Wood carvel |
|---|---|
| Underwater profile | Long keel |
| Finish | Paint finish |
This is a very robust construction with the scanting slightly in excess of the designer's spec - eg an 8" moulded oak keel rather than the 6" specified in the drawings
Planked in 13/8" larch. The top 3 strakes are thicker at 13/4"
The frames are sawn oak in pairs with 4 stream bent intermediate timbers on an oak back-bone
The planking is fastened to the sawn oak frames with galvanised boat nails and with copper rivets and roves to the stem bent timbers
The beamshelf is constructed with shelf and clamp to give a very strong girder
Long external iron ballast keel by Iron Bros of Wadebridge, Cornwall
14 stainless steel keel bolts in pairs
Oak floors with stainless steel brackets between floors and keel bolts to tie them together
The deck is laid in 13/4" iroko, caulked and payed in pitch and sealed with linseed oil, yacht laid to the white painted iroko cover boards
Iroko deck beams, half beams and carlings with bronze tie rods between carlings and beamshelf to stop spread
6" step in the decks midship just forward of the main mast gives extra head-room in the main accomodation
12" bulwark all round on oak stanchions through the cover boards, separate from the frames, with varnished iroko capping rail
win waist high guard rails from the foremast rigging to aft round the permanent main boom crutches
The cockpit is formed by a large, self draining foot well with seating on the deck
Wheel steering on Edson bronze double screw gear to the rudder stock
Water tanks - 2 x 20gal stainless steel tanks, 1 x 10 gall calorified hot water tank

Broker's Comments

the design is based on the American East Coast working schooners with a clipper bow, distinctive counter stern and generous helm.
Sinch launch she has sailed in the 1999 Cutty Sark Tall Ships Race and ran charters.
She has a Code of Practice Cat 2 certificate (60 miles from safe haven) for 8 people but could easily be used as a liveaboard or a day sailer
Last survey 2008 valid for 5 years with annual checks, she was last out of the water 2010
The price includes VAT to be paid by the owner.
