Description:
Wooden Ships Comments on this West Solent One Design West Solent One Design designed and built by the Berthon Boat Co. Ltd in 1927. Yacht No. W22. This 35′ bermudan sloop class was designed by H. Jacobs and H. G. May of Berthons as a cost effective cruiser racer for the Royal Lymington Yacht Club. At the time a new W class could be bought for £600, a similar 6 meter yacht would have cost £1500 so they were well received. A total of 32 boats were built for the UK market, 5 built and shipped to Argentina and one built under licence in Bombay. The design was adopted by the Royal Burnham Yacht Club where it was known as the Royal Burnham Restricted Class. The WSOD, also known as the W class, has seen a huge resurgence in recent years with a number of original boats given professional rebuilds, as well as one or two new examples being built. They are superb boats with exceptionally beautiful lines and have proven to be excellent classic regatta boats that only need a small crew and are still very competitive. This is a very cost effective boat with which to take part in the big classic regattas and race amongst the finest classic yachts in the world while possibly having even more fun than those owners. Underwent a refit by the Cantiere Navale Dell’Argentario in Italy, a yard known for working one some of the finest classic yachts in the Mediterranean. The refit included a complete new deck and full cosmetic job to get her ready for the Med classic regatta circuit. The previous owner undertook major structural repairs between 2010 and 2015 with a new mast, new structural floors and mast step and new keel bolts. A very fine looking yacht that has competed successfully in classic regattas over the last few years.
