Description:

Merrymaid, 112ft gaff cutter, teak on oak frames, built by Camper and Nicholson in Gosport to the master design of Charles E Nicholson (Shamrock IV, Creole, Velsheda, Endeavour). She was launched in 1904 and successfully raced against the big names, winning the Kings Cup, among others. Preserved in Norway during first world war, her lead keel being removed during the second. Used and cherished as a houseboat in Essex for 50 years, she finally underwent two giant refits during the space of five years in both France and in the UK that brought her back to as new condition in 2008 for her current owner. All this to fulfil his dream to achieve the adventure of a circumnavigation on a yacht that represents the epitome of a bygone era. Elegance, beauty, charm, atmosphere, luxury, and comfort. Merrymaid will make you feel sensations impossible to reach with a modern yacht. A unique privilege to enjoy custody of this wonderful maritime heritage and pass it on to the next generations
