Designed by Alan Buchanan and built by G.F. Smeeth, Dedham, Essex in 1966 to Lloyds 100A1.
One of the larger yachts built by this small Essex yard, evidently a quality yacht when built using top class materials and showing some very fine traditional workmanship. The design has notable beam for an English yacht of her day with generous freeboard making her a stiff and dry yacht in a seaway with a large amount of internal volume. The cock-pit is large for the size of yacht and with wheel steering instead of a tiller sweeping the back of the cock-pit, it is very comfortable for larger parties.
Unusually for her time, the coach-roof runs forward only as far as the mast leaving wide side decks and a clear fore deck. Her yawl rig makes her an easily handled yacht in a breeze and she sails well under fore sail and mizzen alone thus eliminating the problems of reefing a big mainsail as the wind gets up.
Part time live aboard by the present owner, a professional seafarer, since 2012 and cruised many thousands of miles around the Mediterranean and back and forth across the Atlantic. Hauled out every year for careful maintenance, she has clearly been loved and properly used in the present ownership and has now returned to the UK to find a deserving new owner.
