This beautiful traditional yacht with its huge varnished mahogany on oak hull is daunting in her sheer size. Built at Cowes in 1957 for the Hon Max Aitkin she was described as "the most technical yacht to have appeared for years. She has been lovingly restored and looks absolutely stunning. During 1986 she was given a long fin keel, and fin and skeg rudder. In total she has been tested with up to 10 different rigs to promote just that extra bit of speed out of her. Her graceful sheer line disguises a length of
raised depth amidships which provides necessary depth within the shallow
body of the hull, and the incidental advantage of forming a breadwater
a few feet forward of the mast, where a portion of foredeck drops into
a well with a foot rail. She is available for skippered charter only and can accommodate up to 12 guests. MEC Sail offers a unique day, whether you wish to participate
in the sailing of the yacht or just sit back and enjoy the sights of the
Solent. The saloon can provide comfortable dining for 12 people.
