Description:
THALIA is an astonishing throwback to the earliest, 19th-Century days of organised yachting, yet she’s a thoroughly practical, easily handled classic yacht. Wanhill of Poole is a name etched in the history of that period, and THALIA carries that direct lineage with her, together with the old world charm and amazing looks that have rescued this characterful cutter more than once from the chainsaw. Her Millennium restoration undertaken with skill and passion, honoured and enhanced in current ownership, has ensured a long future life, surely well into her third Century. In recent years THALIA has taken part in transatlantic adventures her original designer and builder couldn’t have dreamed of, and she’s been a cherished family cruiser-racer closer to home. 2020 - New bowsprit ELEPHANT BOATYARD, BURSLEDON - Underbody refastened with marine bronze screws - Rudder was repaired and strengthened 2011 - MARITIME ENTERPRISES, YARMOUTH/ ELEPHANT BOATYARD, BURSLEDON - New mast, boom and spinnaker pole by Bob Snow, Maritime Enterprises - All standing and running rigging replaced by Martin's Rigging - New set of Ratsey & Lapthorn sails for the new rig - Re-wired and re-plumbed - Over a tonne of internal lead ballast removed - Fitted to either end of the existing lead keel BY IVAN JEFFRIES, BOSHAM HOE - Completely rebuilt - 80% of the hull planks were replaced - A considerable number of frames replaced - New Larch deck - Wherever possible the original hatches fittings and interior elements reused Classic Boat readers voted THALIA 'Gstaad Yacht Club Centenarian of the Year' in the Classic Boat Awards 2021 from an impressive short list of: - MARIETTE (108 ft Herreshoff schooner OLYMPIAN (William Gardner-designed P-Class gaff sloop SUMURUN (94 ft Fife bermudan ketch TIRRENIA II (61 ft Fred Shepherd-designed gaff ketch TRASNAGH (40 ft Alfred Mylne Island Class bermudan yawl 1913) The name Wanhill of Poole is firmly embedded in what might be termed the pre-history of yachting:.
