Wooden Ships Comments on this Sparkman & Stephens One Ton Cup Yacht

Design No.1710-C8 by Sparkman and Stephens, built by the Paul Molich Shipyard, Denmark in 1966.

The yacht was commissioned by Swede Claus Turitz, World Champion in the One Ton Cup of 1966 and she raced in the 1968 One Ton Cup championships.

Nicely maintained yacht with a completed new composite teak deck in 2017 and new Volvo Penta diesel engine in 2025.  In 2024 the yacht was sailed 3000Nm from Stavanger to the North Cape of Norway and back.

An easily sailed and fast yacht with classic S&S lines.  It is very easy to see the evolution of the Swan yachts by looking at these earlier S&S designs.

5 single berths, galley with ENO gas stove and separate heads compartment.

A fine yacht in very tidy condition.  Wintered inside undercover.
