PURITAN is quite simply a #legend. She beautifully carries before her the spirit of America’s ‘Gilded Age’, was one of the earliest participants in the ‘Classic Yacht Revival’, and has continued evangelistically to spread the word for over four #decades, with alumni becoming key players; disciples even. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/688/PURITAN Built from the highest grade of steel then available by a shipyard set up to build submarines for the US Navy - and infused with the DNA of some of the finest American schooners - the care that went into PURITAN’s design and build, her ease of sailing and motion, and her spacious yet intimate accommodations have always guaranteed lovers, even when her chips were seriously down in the late 1960s. Mediterranean-based for most of the past 30 years, PURITAN has been enjoyed since 2015 in current ownership as a successful MCA-coded charter yacht and summertime family cruiser - with her centreboard-up draft allowing access to anchorages and harbours other yachts of her size can't reach.

Romantically named and conceived – a dream come true for Cornwall-based boatbuilder and educator Luke Powell and many who worked on and followed this remarkable project – the replica Falmouth Pilot Cutter PELLEW is one of the most memorable boats we have seen. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/747/PELLEW She’s lucky to have been designed and built, as close as possible to the long lived VINCENT of 1852, by someone bold enough to do it and who really knows what works: as a traditional boat, and as a successful charter vessel. PELLEW has already been very well tested, and has youth, size, and volume very much on her side – as well, of course, as incredible and unique good looks.

LAK II is a beautiful yacht that in a sense carries in her timbers the story of France over the past 85 years. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/742/LAK%20II Born in a brief period of optimism between depression and war, and somehow a survivor of that war’s deprivations; designed by a young naval architect, André Mauric, whose genius would later become universally recognised; vibrant participant in the carefree post war years, and in France’s intense America’s Cup campaigns of the 1970s... But in the end, a wonderful yacht because André Mauric had that touch of technical and artistic flair that guarantees immortality. LAK II was given a new lease of life in 2007 that ensures another lifetime of pleasure giving. In current ownership in England she has been recently given a fully electric propulsion system and new sails, and won her class at the 2022 edition of British Classic Week.
