Stow And Son Gaff Yawl 1895

In restoring VALERIE, Scott Metcalfe and his team at Waterfront Marine have accomplished an exceedingly beautiful, sympathetic rebuild, apparently commensurate with her vintage, which at nigh on 120 years makes her a genuine historical artefact.  It is both a quirk and a blessing of classic boating however that an object of such rarity, beauty and desirability can be experienced and enjoyed as was intended by her maker so many tides ago.

The simplicity of her finish and fit-out are also appropriate to her vintage, while the re-introduction of her original yawl rig makes her a handy craft capable of being easily sailed by a small crew.

Partial completion of her interior and that an engine has not yet been installed enables a new owner to specify to his own accommodation arrangements, for which an outline optional plan exists.
