Vintage " Bermuda Sloop" Sailboat, Yacht, Restored c.a. 1940's Era

10% off all of our vintage yachts through February 7, 2024.

This is a very nice vintage Bermuda Sloop (handmade) which we just attained from one of our network collectors. The yacht is 28" L X 35"H X 5"W and is in excellent condition. We restored a good part of this boat adding some period concepts to the rigging design and cleaning the original sails.
There is brass fitting throughout the original decking. The red and white color combination emphasizes the overall beauty of this fine historic yacht that will continue to appreciate in value over the years.

The original stand is newly painted a "nautical blue" with red contact area padding to protect the finish. After painting, we added 2 coatings of marine grade sealer to protect the finish.
This is a great example of true nautical vintage history and would make a great gift for the man or women who loves the ocean and is difficult to buy for.
As with all of our vintage yachts, we partially disassemble the mast and some rigging for safe shipping. We will include directions for minor assembly and e mail you detailed pictures.
Thank you!
