Little could the Victorian and Edwardian owners of six beautiful 52 feet identical gaff cutter cruiser-racers, and their young designer Alfred Mylne, imagine that more than 125 years later one of them would still be doing exactly what they'd conceived. Believed the last remaining ‘Clyde 20-Ton One Design', TIGRIS has been lucky to be almost constantly and extensively raced and cruised throughout her long life. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/752/TIGRIS And many of her owners gave back, and continue to do so to ensure that this beautiful, still very practical, fast, and superbly authentic, high provenance yacht continues to give pleasure and gain admirers. A relatively recent open heart surgery refit in current ownership by Chantier du Guip concentrated on the vitally important structural elements down below, where she is effectively only a decade old.

The people of Porto hold a huge celebration for the festival of São João (Saint John) on 23rd June. And by luck we were in Porto on the day after the festival, when the Rabelo Boat Regatta is held on the River Douro in the heart of the City. These shallow, flat bottom boats were originally used to transport the Port wine from the vineyards on the steep slopes of the extensive Douro River to the wineries in Porto, for ageing. These traditional boats were beginning to disappear by the early 1980s, so the Winery Brotherhood initiated the regatta, in which all of the major wineries are represented by their own boat each year.

FARIDA is quintessentially Giles, and a gem - one of the most carefully thought-out yachts of her size of her day. And still stunning: her perfectly proportioned overhangs, sweet sheer-line and unmistakable Jack Laurent Giles styling still capable of turning heads. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/548/FARIDA 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.
