Wooden Ships Comments on this 36' Motor Sailer Ketch

The hull was built by boat builder Charles McElroy in Ardboe, N. Ireland and launched in 1991.

The uncompleted hull was purchased by local man Aiden Riley, a lifeboat mechanic, who completed the build with the help of cabinet maker Vincent Murphy.

Plans for the completed boat were drawn up by naval architects Barr & Associates with stability analysis by Strathclyde Maritime Design.

She is largely based on traditional fishing boat lines, however her fore and aft sections are finer giving her a good grip in the water and better sailing performance than a round bilge fishing boat.

The RNLI connection is evident throughout from the aluminium wheelhouse to numerous high-end fittings, attention to details and the general no nonsense finish.

Bought by the present owner in 2014, a thorough rolling refit commenced with upgrading of much of the equipment and systems. Most of the rig is new, all electronics, nav systems and a Beta 90hp engine fitted in 2022.

In recent years she has been used for cruising the west coast of Scotland and the Hebrides, where she has proven herself as a very capable and comfortable sea-going boat, well known and much admired in many places. Her hull shape is most interesting with good grip in the water, giving her rather impressive sailing performance. Although a motor-sailer at heart, she has a big sail area and can stand up to her canvas. She will easily make 6/7 knots on a beam reach.

Often mistaken for a Fisher 37, she is superior in many ways to that design and is a very impressive yacht, superbly well equipped, and ready for any extended cruising. Her large wheelhouse gives excellent space and shelter. Dedicated sleeping areas in the forward and the aft cabins separates sleeping space from living space.

Whether the plan is to potter around the west coast of Scotland, or head north to Iceland, Svalbard and beyond, this is a boat capable of extended expeditions as well as relaxed local cruising.

April 2024 survey available.

The vessel is being moved south to Dartmouth in the spring of 2025.

Length on Deck                          36’3” / 11.06m

Wooden Ships Comments on this Silvers Ormidale Motor Yacht

Silvers Ormidale class motor yacht designed by John Bain and built by James A. Silver Ltd, Rosneath in 1965. Built to Lloyds 100A1 classification.

Built for Edinburgh surgeon Mr John Stenhouse, she has only had 3 previous owners. In 2000 she was given a major overhaul with a pair of new Gardner 6LXB engines fitted by Gardner Marine along with new stainless steel fuel tanks.

Professionally maintained in present ownership by boatbuilders on the Isle of Wight and cruised around the Solent and West Country.

The recent Gardner engines with low hours are a very impressive addition to this yacht, offering reliable, quiet and fuel efficient cruising.

Her comfortable layout offers 3 sleeping cabins with 2 single berths in each, plus 3 heads compartments, 2 of them with full height showers.

This is a lovely example of this well respected class of motor yacht which has retained much of her original charm and character through sympathetic ownerships. Coupled with her relatively recent engines and systems, she is a ready to go, professionally maintained classic yacht ideally suited to family cruising.
