Description:
Wooden Ships Comments on this Sparkman and Stephens teak sloop Designed by Sparkman and Stephens, S&S drawing No.153 dated 9th December 1936. Built by AH King Slipways, Hong Kong in 1949. Supposedly built for Ambassador Carlos Romulo of the Philippines, a general, journalist, WWII resistance fighter and later a UN representative. Brought to New York while Romulo was working for the UN, she came into the present family ownership in 1967, sailing out of Maine for many years before moving to the eastern Mediterranean in 1992 where she has remained ever since. Her exact condition is not clear, but given the quality of her hull planking it is likely the hull can be restored. Some work is certainly required around the stern post. The interior is quite remarkable, completely original and untouched, she is a real time capsule and a very rare opportunity for someone looking to restore their own classic yacht. The owner is anxious to find a suitable new custodian who is able to give the boat the sympathetic refit she deserves. Length on Deck 45’Length Waterline 32’Beam 10’6”Draft 6’ Construction Burma teak hull with a layer of diagonal planking overlaid with fore and aft planking.
