Charles E Nicholson Ketch
Charles E Nicholson in the top league of early 20th century designers imbued HURRICA V with all elegance of a classic yacht of the Edwardian era. Now restored, she lives on as an exemplar of the history of yachting and its legacy - and there are few if any yachts with such a pedigree, provenance or good looks - yet with usability and in such fine fettle. The updating as a family yacht has been done wherever possible to maintain the character of her era and discrete modern sailing systems enable shorthanded family use. While not original, the accommodation has been beautifully arranged yet is extremely practical to a degree that is rare in a classic yacht.
