Wooden Ships Comments on this Paul Gartside Bermudan Sloop Designed by Paul Gartside and built by the first owner, launched in 2003. The brief to Gartside was for a ‘strong, tight and easily handled no-nonsense boat, capable of beating to windward in adverse conditions’. The builder was limited in size by his barn, hence her overall length of 21’. The construction utilises modern glues to create a very tough and durable hull that requires minimal maintenance and will withstand very tough sailing conditions. In 2013/2014 the current owner, a professional shipwright, bought the boat and carried out a refit with a new engine and systems, new electrics, added birdpit tents and other gear. More recently the rig has been upgraded with a stack pack system on the boom and roller furling on the headsail. This is an unusual and very capable little boat in excellent condition and very well equipped for short handed offshore cruising. Her custom made yard bogey and accompanying road trailer mean she can be easily transported home to reduce running costs and make for hassle free boating. Length on Deck 21’Length Waterline 17’10”Beam 7’Draft 3’7”Displacement 4000lbs Sail Area 232sqft Construction 1” cold moulded hull. ½” Douglas fir strip planking bonded, overlaid with 2 diagonal layers of khaya and a top fore and aft layer.
