FARIDA - LAURENT GILES 35 FT BERMUDAN SLOOP 1939 FARIDA is quintessentially Giles, and a gem - one of the most carefully though out yachts of her size of her day. http://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/548/FARIDA And still stunning: her perfectly proportioned overhangs, sweet sheer-line and unmistakable Jack Laurent Giles styling still capable of turning heads. And she's got it all, because, of course, FARIDA's well-balanced, powerful rig is easy to handle, and she is very quick even in light conditions. And her delightfully airy accommodation offers perfect comfort in the classic style. Skillfully and beautifully rebuilt/ restored over a five-year period for a very passionate owner using as much of the original as possible and the finest of materials where she is new, FARIDA was relaunched in 2018 in ‘better than new’ condition, and given normal just deserts should offer many years of sailing fun and passion into the future, cruising and classic racing.

Amazing coincidence... My cousin who I haven't seen in 40 years, sailing the same classic (and rare) sailboat as us, a Pacific 38, built in New Zealand in 1976... and we had no idea. Our Phuket reunion was a blast and MAIA got to meet her sister. 👍 Don't forget to Like, Share, and Subscribe for More Adventures!

Exiting the Narrows of Strangford Lough and crossing the Bar mouth to head out into the Irish Sea is always exciting when you have wind verse tide. The passage was out in this years Ardglass Race hosted by East Down Yacht Club was no different. J109 GTR powered through the biggest seas which were breaking over the deck at there steepest point. The team at Bottom Up Boats hope you enjoy the short clip from our 2024 season if you want to watch the full race review follow the link below for all the action. https://youtu.be/gqGjquF75pA
