Enquire about Kim Holman Stella

Please fill in this form and we will contact you about this boat

SOLD

Kim Holmans Stella needs little introduction, derived from the Folkboat but slightly larger all round, they have been raced and cruised successfully for over 60 years with an active fleet still on the east coast of the UK. This boat has been the beneficiary of meticulous maintenance by her experienced owner with plenty of upgrades in the last 10 years. She is largely original but with subtle alterations to improve her for racing. Probably one of the best examples available on the market, an honest and very smart boat at sensible money.

Enquire about Herreshoff Islander

Please fill in this form and we will contact you about this boat

SOLD
Herreshoff Islander sailing boat

Designed by Sydney Herreshoff and built by Port Hamble Ltd. Herreshoff aimed to design and small, fast and easily managed but very capable keel boat, and this is exactly what the Islander is. The boats were built here and shipped back to America due to lower production costs and very few examples remained in this country. Light enough to tow behind a moderate car at 1.25 tons, easy to single hand but with a large enough cockpit for a crew. The small cabin has space for 1 or 2 berths to allow weekend camping trips and an outboard mounted over the side is there as a reliable and simple back up. A beautiful looking boat in good sound condition, in commission and being used regularly this season.
