Wooden Ships Comments on this Paul Gartside Bermudan Sloop

Designed by Paul Gartside and built by the first owner, launched in 2003.

The brief to Gartside was for a ‘strong, tight and easily handled no-nonsense boat, capable of beating to windward in adverse conditions’.

The builder was limited in size by his barn, hence her overall length of 21’. The construction utilises modern glues to create a very tough and durable hull that requires minimal maintenance and will withstand very tough sailing conditions.

In 2013/2014 the current owner, a professional shipwright, bought the boat and carried out a refit with a new engine and systems, new electrics, added cockpit tents and other gear. More recently the rig has been upgraded with a stack pack system on the boom and roller furling on the headsail.

This is an unusual and very capable little boat in excellent condition and very well equipped for short handed offshore cruising.

She has a custom made yard bogey/trolley which can fit on a road trailer for easy transport and lower cost storage. Heavy duty road trailer available for an extra £2,000.
