https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/593/BORDER%20LEGEND BORDER LEGEND is a resurrected masterpiece from the sunset days of traditional #yachtbuilding in #Britain; when finely-built wooden yachts were still just about the norm, and their designers and #builders could call on a century or more of handed down skills. BORDER LEGEND's design by George McGruer is a natural #evolution from the renowned work of his father, James, and her build was by the last generations of a highly skilled workforce managed by the wider #McGruer family from the 1890s into the early 2000s. Among the last wooden yachts designed and built there in the early 1970s were three wholesome, elegant and fast 49-55 ft ketches. While the ocean passagemaking exploits of CUILAUN and TALISKER MHOR (ex CERESIO) have become legendary, their smaller sister, BORDER LEGEND (launched as GLORY B IV for furniture manufacturer W.J. Barton of Cheshire, later Hampshire), remained under the radar: a bona fide family cruiser, latterly Solent-based. Circumstances saw her fall on hard times before recent rescue and a major refit under current, experienced ownership - so that one of the finest, last generation wooden #yachts is now available for the pure enjoyment - and it can only be that - of her next owner.
