Wooden Ships
The Jolina class, designed by Charles Nicholson, was a successful cruiser racer yacht that proved to be very competitive as well as a comfortable and practical cruising boat. This particular example is unusual in the class as she was built not by Camper & Nicholson, but by Clare Lallows on the Isle of Wight, and arguably to a higher standard of finish than most of her sister ships. Sold by Wooden Ships 2 years ago, she had one excellent season with her new owner but a series of personal circumstances meant she was not launched in 2025 and has been sat on the hard for 18 months. Now looking decidedly sorry for herself we are looking for the next custodian to take her. The boat seems fundamentally sound, and the long list of refit work done in the previous ownership backs that up. She has recent rigging, excellent sails and a delightful interior, but she will need a good clean up with attention to the paint and varnish. Full details and lots more photos available on request. The asking price is £16,000 and she is lying ashore in Falmouth. ... See MoreSee Less

Wooden Ships Comments on this 40' Bermudan Cruising Ketch

40’ Bermudan ketch designed by Irishman G. O’Brian Kennedy, better known for his popular little sloop the Lymington Slipway.

The keel was laid and the hull built by well known yard Harold Kimber, Somerset in 1964 but the yacht was never completed.

She was finally completed and commissioned by Tideway Marine, Salcombe in 1980 for a Hampshire hotel owner who cruised the boat to the Med and used her for light charter work.

In the present ownership the yacht has undergone some significant refit work, including a new deck in 2015, and has been cruised extensively with trips to the Med, Azores and numerous voyages around the UK and northern European coasts.  Much of this has been done single handed proving her as an easily handled and safe yacht even in very severe weather conditions that she experienced.

A very tough and capable yacht that has proved herself in classic regatta events as well as long distance ocean sailing with a well documented refit history.

Length on Deck                          40’

Length Overall                           46’

Length Waterline                       30’

Beam                                            10’6”

Draft                                             6’

Wooden Ships Comments on this Bristol Channel Pilot Cutter Margeurite

Bristol Channel Pilot Cutter built by Rowles of Pill near Bristol in 1893.

The build was commissioned by pilot Frank Trott at a cost of £500, she went on to be a very successful pilot boat and regatta winner in the annual pilot cutter races around the Bristol Channel.

In 1900 she became known as the ‘boat with the new boom’ after she was fitted with the first example of the famous Appledore roller reefing system which went on to become commonplace on all pilot cutters, enabling the mainsail to be reefed easily even in heavy weather.  She still sports her original Appledore gear on the boom, overhauled and improved with grease nipples to enable regular greasing of the moving parts.

After retiring from her working life, she became a private yacht and then charter yacht, eventually ending up in the Caribbean as a charter vessel.  She was sold here and moved to Covey Island Boatworks in Nova Scotia where a major rebuild commenced in the 1990’s involving all new frames and planking, new deck and refitted rig and interior.

She was sold in 2000 to the current owners, experienced wooden boat custodians and sailors, who have cruised her across the Atlantic and back, around Britain and taken part in numerous classic yacht regattas and events.  She is a regular fixture around the West country coast spending recent years between Falmouth, the Scillies and Padstow.

One of the largest of the surviving original Pilot Cutters, a well respected and admired yacht with a great pedigree and history.  She stands apart from many of the pilot cutters with her large and comfortable cockpit which is ideal for cruising, and her spacious homely interior which has far better headroom than most of her contemporaries.
