2 weeks ago

Ex RNLB 'Samuel and Marie Parkhouse' is a Watson Class lifeboat built in 1938. She served as the Salcombe lifeboat from 1938 -1962 and is currently berthed in Salcombe where she is a treasured part of the local boating community. Fitted with twin Gardner 6LX engines, she has been returned very close to her original exterior appearance. Down below she has a sleeping cabin and saloon up forward containing 4 berths and a small heads compartment. Shipwright owned, this boat is a regular visitor to classic boat events and RNLI gatherings, cruising around the south coast every summer.woodenships.co.uk/motor-yacht/ex-rnlb-watson-class-lifeboat/ ...

How to Sell a Yacht

September 5th 2022

How to sell a classic yacht – 10 things to expect from your broker. Selling a classic yacht can be daunting, but working with a broker can simp…

More detail on this classic motor yacht for sale: https://woodenships.co.uk/motor-yacht/68-silvers-twin-screw-motor-yacht/

Built by James Silver & Co, Rosneath, Scotland in 1937 to a design by John Bain. Bain was the resident marine architect and subsequently became MD of the yard. He is well-known for his distinctive motor yacht designs which made the yard’s reputation.

This is one of 3 built to the same design and one of the largest vessels built in the yard.
She was an advanced design in her day with very modern lines and still has that enduring appeal of the period motor yacht.

The vessel has typical lines of her period with a long keel, raked stem and canoe stern.
Spacious aft deck with raised midships superstructure.

The vessel has been ashore in a dry dock for a number of years and has more recently been given an overhaul in present ownership, work which has now sadly come to a halt. Work has included refitting the deck and topsides with full detailed invoices available.

Her interior retains the same basic original layout as when she was launched and some mahogany joinery remains in the boat, however certain areas and cabins have been ripped out and altered. A new owner would take great pleasure in designing the interior to suit their own specific needs, retaining as much of the original as possible but creating a yacht fit for the modern world.

She has a pair of modern Perkins M135 diesels with very low hours.

This a superbly elegant yacht with a huge volume interior that could be refitted to an incredibly high standard and would look the part in any harbour around the world. A vast amount of time and money has gone into the boat in recent years, but a new custodian is now required to continue that effort and get her back to sea.

Described in the yachting press at the time of her launch as ‘one of the finest pleasure craft built on the Clyde’ she really is very special and has the potential to be a superb private yacht of the perfect size.

Length on deck 68’
Length Waterline 63’
Beam 15’2”
Draft 6’
Thames Tonnage 60TM

More detail on this classic motor yacht for sale: https://woodenships.co.uk/motor-yacht/philips-50-motor-yacht/

The Philips 50 was designed and built by Philips & Son of Dartmouth in 1967 and was one of several similar motor yachts built to the same design. Philips & Sons at the time were a very famous yard and had an excellent reputation in the yachting industry for building quality yachts of all designs and sizes.

The design offers a lot of deck space, a large saloon and three separate sleeping cabins, all in just over 48'. Powered by a pair of reliable Perkins 6cyl diesels which have been well maintained, she is capable of good cruising speed with very acceptable fuel consumption.

She has a large and clear aft deck surrounded by elegant rails with a teak capping rail. This aft deck is a superb space for entertaining and relaxing and is a special feature of this boat compared to some of her sisters.

The current owner bought the boat in 2018 and has had her maintained by the yard of Stirling & Son in Plymouth who have a lot of experience with this type of vessel. They have undertaken some intensive maintenance including re-caulking the deck and hull repairs where necessary.

An elegant and turn key motor yacht offering lots of comfortable volume and space for her length.

Length on Deck 48'3"
Beam 14'7"
Draft 4'6"
Displacement 14 tons
