This Herreshoff 58 ketch was built in 1962 by Astilleros Mallorca (Mallorca, Spain) with drawings from 1931. The yacht completed a circumnavigation and a half over several decades with its original owner and his family. She was totally refitted by Charpentiers Réunis Méditerranée at La Ciotat over a period of three years from 2011 and was re-launched in April 2014.
In 2013 the wood above the waterline, Oregon pine, and below the waterline, Iroko planking, was replaced, as was the oak for the frames and the teak for the deck. The deck and superstructure are completely new.
Major systems were renewed during the refit, and the chainplates and steel reinforcements were replaced by stainless steel.
The main mast and mizzen mast are original, as are all the bronze winches.
The interior has been progressively outfitted since 2014 and is now complete, with salon and sleeping accommodation in place. The master stateroom forward has a queen double to port and a single bunk to starboard, and there is a bathroom with a large shower and sink; a separate head is to starboard.
The main electrical switchboard and wiring were completed in 2017, and all plumbing is operational.
The boat has successfully competed on the Mediterranean classic circuit over the last five seasons with good success. She is a lively yacht and a certain head-turner at the dock with her elegant lines and cambered rigs.
The yacht underwent a refit and servicing in June 2021 for over 60,000 Euros, including maintenance and a respray of the topsides and varnish.
