History

As far as classic boats go, you could hardly ask for a more popular design than the International Six Metre, a class of racing yachts from the Olympics of yesteryear. Maida is a 35-foot racing sloop, built in 1932 by Alexander Stephen and Sons, which was a Scottish shipbuilding company in Glasgow on the River Clyde. She was designed by ?Wee John? Stephen of the same family.

The International Six Metre class (often called 6mR) is a construction class, which means the boats are not identical but are designed to meet a measurement formula. Also, ?six metre? refers to the formula rather than the length of the boat; six metre yachts are on average 30-35 feet long.

The design has an almost straight line from the stem head to the rudder heel. Unlike the swooping overhang of the stern, the bow is nearly plumb. According to the original plans, Maida was built of African white mahogany planking on a yellow pine backbone. She has been through numerous refits, during which the ribs and some of the planking have been replaced and some deck modifications made. Maida has a recent mahogany cockpit coaming and slatted hardwood cockpit sole boards. Much has been changed on a wooden boat that is 80 years old, but despite her many upgrades, Maida?s classic lines still continue to dazzle.

This Harrison Butler Bogle Class is a comfortable, attractive and weatherly cruising yacht with proven capabilities. The Bogle Design was first drawn by Dr. Harrison Butler in 1933 for the Little Ship Club designing competition. Fairwind has been in her currently ownership for over 20 years and has been well maintained. She is in full commission, ready for the season ahead.

Combining practicality with elegant 1960s styling, the Fairey Huntsman 28 offers comfortable accommodation for weekend cruising, whilst preserving the heritage and character that make these iconic boats so highly sought after.

Mechanical Systems

Powered by twin Mermaid Mistral 185hp turbocharged diesel engines. Factory reconditioned engine and gearbox installed in approximately 2006. The engines feature indirect cooling and are coupled to shaft drives, providing dependable and straightforward propulsion. Fuel is supplied from a single steel fuel tank with a capacity of approximately 70 gallons, offering a practical cruising range. The vessel cruises comfortably at around 23 knots, with an average fuel consumption of approximately 10 gallons per hour, making her well suited to coastal cruising and day passages. Engine controls are operated via dual lever controls, allowing precise handling and manoeuvrability. Power is transmitted through the shafts via P-brackets to a pair of traditional three blade bronze propellers. Benefiting from a significant mechanical refit in 2024, both Mermaid Mistral engines were rebuilt with new bearings, pistons, rings, liners, injectors, valves, turbochargers, and engine mounts. New shafts, cutlass bearings, and shaft seals were also fitted, with the bronze propellers polished and balanced. This extensive programme of works leaves the vessel's propulsion system in excellent condition, providing confidence-inspiring reliability and performance.

Electrical Systems

The 12 volt system comprises two domestic batteries and one separate 12 volt engine cranking battery. Charging is provided primarily by the engine-driven alternator during operation, supplemented by a solar panel installation. Shore power connectivity allows the vessel to be connected to a marina supply, providing 240 volt AC power to the onboard ring main system for domestic appliances and battery charging equipment. The 240-volt system also supplies an immersion heater, enabling hot water production when connected to shore power. This arrangement offers a practical balance of off-grid capability and shoreside convenience, making the vessel well suited to both cruising and extended stays aboard.

Construction

Designed by Alan Burnard of Fairey Marine, the Huntsman 28 has sweeping sheer lines, a low coach roof, varnished timber detailing and expansive teak decks creating an elegant appearance, while the practical deck layout makes her equally suited to entertaining, coastal cruising and classic boat events. Externally, the boat offers wide side decks for safe and easy movement forward, complemented by laid teak decking. The spacious aft cockpit provides an excellent social area with ample space for seating and relaxing, while the foredeck offers useful working space for anchoring and mooring operations. Built in 1962, this example features Fairey Marine's renowned hot-laminated Agba hull construction, an innovative technique that produces a hull that is lightweight, exceptionally strong and highly resistant to working under load. The hull is supported by a wooden frame structure, while the wooden decks are finished with traditional laid teak, maintaining the authentic character and craftsmanship for which Fairey boats are so highly regarded.

The vessel has benefited from ongoing maintenance and cosmetic improvements, including a hull repaint in 2025. Below the waterline, new anodes were fitted in 2026 and the hull was freshly antifouled in 2026, helping to ensure she is ready for immediate use. Combining iconic Fairey construction, classic teak-decked aesthetics and recent maintenance works, this Huntsman 28 represents a well-presented example of one of Britain's most celebrated motor yacht designs.

Built in 1971, this S&S 30 features a white GRP hull complemented by a grey painted non-slip deck and cockpit. The deck is equipped with stainless steel pulpit rails and guard wires. The cockpit benefits from teak-slatted seating and a teak-slatted sole, enhancing its classic appearance. She is fitted with a lead fin keel and was Coppercoated in 2017. Steering is via a tiller connected to a skeg-hung rudder. Additional exterior features include a traditional teak toe rail. The vessel's anodes were replaced in 2026.

The Golden Hind 31 is a deeply traditional Maurice Griffiths design which has proved to be a reliable and sturdy offshore cruiser with easily handled sea kindly performance.  Finished with a traditional wooden hull, deck and superstructure, providing the incomparable ambience of a classic yacht.  The moderate draft also allows unfettered cruising in shallow coastal waters. Trigger has been well cared for by her three owners and is in exceptional condition. Well worth inspection.

The Ohlson 8.8, not to be confused with the Ohlson 29, was designed by Einar Ohlson in the late 1960's as a comfortable, sea-worthy family cruising boat capable of sleeping six people. For her era, she has a high-performance hull that is easily driven to windward and proved successful at the time. 'Picaroon' has been in her current ownership for nearly 20 years and has been well maintained by her professional engineer owner. She has proved to be a very quick yacht and a delight to sail.

Description

'Albatross' is a custom-built fishing or day cruiser, professionally built to a high standard on the highly regarded Tamar 2000 hull. Offering the charm of traditional wooden fishing boat lines enhanced by her traditional Iroko cappings and aft deck, but with much-reduced maintenance, she would appeal equally to day cruisers and fishermen. Although originally designed and built for commercial use at sea, with a big clear aft deck and oversized scuppers, her shallow draft and easily controlled nature would also work well on rivers. June 2023 survey available.

Viewing by appointment only through our Essex office (01621) 785600 or via email: essex@clarkeandcarter.co.uk

Accommodation

The simple accommodation consists of a wheelhouse with good standing headroom open to a forepeak with a single V-berth for overnight stays. This could be modified to offer an offset double berth if required and, although currently not in service, there is a marine toilet installed beneath the starboard berth which appears in good condition (all seacocks and pump should be serviced/overhauled). In the wheelhouse, the helm position is to starboard for ease of access to the aft deck, with a simple galley to port equipped with a sink with manually pumped cold water supply, space for a cooker or hob if required and ample storage.

Although the wheelhouse and cabin are currently quite basic it would be very easy for these to be adapted to suit her next owner's needs.

The Oyster 37 is a handsome and well-regarded British cruising yacht, combining classic 1970s styling with the solid construction and capable sailing characteristics for which the Oyster name has become known. Built in 1978, she offers the reassuring feel of a substantial offshore cruiser while remaining a practical and enjoyable yacht for coastal sailing and extended cruising. Her attractive lines, generous proportions and purposeful deck layout give her plenty of traditional character, while below decks she provides comfortable accommodation and a proper cruising interior suited to spending extended periods aboard. With her combination of pedigree, practicality and timeless appeal, the Oyster 37 represents an excellent opportunity for anyone looking for a characterful classic yacht with genuine cruising credentials. Designed by Holman & Pye to rate as a one tonner under the IOR, the 37 is a racer/cruiser and is particularly fast upwind where she is still capable of embarrassing more modern designs. Good cabin space, combined with classic IOR good looks, makes the Oyster 37 an attractive yacht. Forty were launched between 1978 and 1980. A great opportunity to acquire an Oyster 27 at an attractive price, with scope to improve and personalise her to your own requirements. Some remedial work and general updating are required, making her an ideal project for a hands-on owner.

The Vertue is one of the most respected small offshore cruising yachts ever designed, renowned for its seaworthiness, traditional lines and proven passage making capabilities. Vertue Voyager is a particularly interesting example, being believed to be the first GRP-built Vertue II produced and constructed as a showcase boat with an exceptionally high standard of finish throughout. Unlike many later production boats, she features a superb full teak interior, demonstrating the quality of craftsmanship that went into her build. Having cruised extensively in the North Sea and Baltic, she offers a rare opportunity to acquire a capable offshore cruiser with genuine pedigree, enhanced by sympathetic updates and continual maintenance.
