Laurent Giles Brittany Class

Laurent Giles Brittany Class, designed by Jack Laurent Giles and built by R.A. Newman and Sons in 1939.

Built for Col. Ormonde Derby, she was the first of the celebrated Brittany Class to be built, they are highly sought after and do not come on the market often.  Very elegant lines with a nicely proportioned dog house, beautiful sheer line and excellent performance.

This boat was purchased by the current owner in 1991.  The bottom 6 planks each side had been replaced in 1986, however many of the frames were in a poor state and these were replaced early in the current ownership, followed by a new teak deck and all new strap floors throughout.

A true pedigree classic yacht that has been well maintained and exudes class.
