It seems hard to believe it took so long for this magnificent vessel’s preliminary drawings to be given form. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/724/WOLFHOUND Perhaps the most authentic expression of John G. Alden’s highly successful fusion of the American fishing schooner as pleasure yacht, her 1927 design date parallels his most successful period in fast cruiser design, when his MALABARs ruled the waves. After gathering dust at the John G. Alden office for almost 90 years, along came an individual with the knowledgeable passion and vision to bring Design No. 347 to life as WOLFHOUND. All executed by the best possible people, including naval architect Niels C. Helleberg who began his Alden design career working beside the man who had originally drawn her lines. For her hull builder, Graafship, it’s the first time they’ve built a genuinely new classic schooner instead of a replica, and she was a labour of love for her finishing craftsmen. Since completion in 2021, WOLFHOUND already has two Atlantic crossings under her belt and a period of extensive Baltic cruising, all crewed by family and friends, and is very well-proven. Vindication of John Alden’s minimally crewed dream yacht for exploration adventures beyond the horizon: WOLFHOUND’s brave, wholesome appearance - very different from the replicas built for the classic regatta circuit - shouts this.

this is the walk of shame as 30 boats motor back to the dock when the 11/08 race to herron island was "abandoned" after only 3 hours of racing.

Sono giornate lavorativamente molto produttive. Ci svegliamo presto, organizziamo la nostra giornata e rispettiamo tutti gli slot che ci prefissiamo. Abbiamo progetti nuovi in cantiere per cui nutriamo grande entusiasmo, alcuni dei quali vi coinvolgeranno in prima persona! Insomma: questa parentesi ferma a terra sta manifestandosi sotto una luce molto più brillante di quanto pensassimo. La tanto blasonata resilienza riassume proprio questo concetto di trarre da ogni situazione l’opportunità che si cela alle sue spalle. Stiamo concentrandoci su ciò che è sotto al nostro controllo e non considerando l’inevitabile o ciò che è più grande di noi (il meteo in questo caso), tanto non ci possiamo fare nulla. Così dopo una grande giornata di lavoro e un bell’allenamento andiamo a fare due passi in una zona nuova della città: incantevole! Ci lasciamo rapire da profumi messicani passeggiando e decidiamo di ritardare il nostro ritorno a bordo. Così gustiamo nachos e burritos, ascoltiamo un bravissimo chitarrista che suona davanti a noi e torniamo in barca. Che giornata piena di energia, vita e energie positive! Avanti così☺️ Andrea
