Coatham Mundeville
Description:
CERESTE is such a perfect example of a state of the art late 1930s classic yacht that it's hard to believe the Mystery Class design was Robert Clark’s first, having served no apprenticeship with an established design office, or any training in yacht construction. Twelve were built just before and after the Second World War, with CERESTE one of the finest living examples following her extensive rebuild by Suffolk Yacht Harbour. In the ensuing years she’s been more racer than cruiser, with an enviable prize haul: competitive under both IRC and CIM without compromise to her beautifully proportioned sail plan. Her enticing accommodation, very easily handled rig, and the reputation for all round competence Robert Clark’s Mystery Class comes with, also guarantees that gentle or more ambitions cruising in CERESTE with family and friends will always give pleasure. With that added ingredient of the elegance afforded by a masterpiece. SUFFOLK YACHT HARBOUR, Levington, Suffolk New engine New teak laid deck on marine plywood During the three-year restoration process, much of the original structure and joinery was salvaged and thus she remains very much as original. The extensive refit included a new teak deck, birdpit and coach roof and the installation of wheel steering. - Replacement of all hull timbers - New keel bolts - New centreline fastenings - New rudder - New mast step - New stainless steel floors, chainplates, and hanging knees - Removal, refurbishment and replacement of original interior - New coach roof and birdpit - Original mast rebuilt and extended for fractional rig - New boom and spinnaker pole (Collars) Robert Clark and Susinteraction Yacht Works independently hit the ground running in 1936: Clark from complete obscurity but heavily endorsed by the powerful yachting press of the day; the yard from a greenfield site on the south bank of the River Adur, Shoreham-by-Sea, well funded by locally resident industrialist and yachting enthusiast.
