RESTORATION (1998–1999)

A full, stem-to-stern rebuild was undertaken by Peter Brookes at Maldon, completed to concours standard. The work encompassed hull, deck, spars, interior, systems, and fittings. This was the final West Solent restored by Brookes before his relocation to New Zealand, and is widely regarded as one of his finest achievements.

HISTORY

Yard Number: 199
Class Sail Number: W-1

Commissioned for Mrs Ida Potter of Lymington — an accomplished helmswoman and a woman notably ahead of her time — ARROW began life among a spirited family of racers. Her husband, Major Cyril Potter OBE, banker and Royal Yacht Squadron member, was instrumental in founding the club that would become the Royal Lymington Yacht Club. The Potters’ enthusiasm for small-boat competition helped bring the West Solent class into being, and ARROW was their flagship.

Her early career was marked by success, taking the overall class championship in her first season. Over the following decades she passed through distinguished hands, known variously as DART and later HUAHINE. Among her custodians were decorated naval officers, a celebrated motor-yacht owner, several committed amateur racers, and notably Frank G. G. Carr — former Director of the National Maritime Museum, intimately involved in the preservation of CUTTY SARK.

Throughout the 20th century she sailed extensively on the south coast, the Medway, Chichester and Brightlingsea waters, and the East Coast rivers. Returning to Maldon in 1998 for her major restoration, she regained her original name ARROW.

During the past 25 years she has been actively and successfully campaigned, winning admiration wherever she appears. At the 2025 Hamble Classics Regatta she received the Concours d’Elegance award — a fitting accolade for a yacht of such stature.

Additional information

Design, Heritage & Provenance

LA FENICE’s origins give her a uniquely purposeful elegance: a hull conceived for range, stability and composed performance in open water. Laurent Giles shaped her with the quiet confidence of a designer working at the top of his game, producing a vessel that remains remarkably efficient and soft-footed underway more than six decades later.

Launched in 1962 as Diadem of Dewlish, she was created as the travelling mother ship for financier J.A. Boyden’s America’s Cup campaign with Sovereign in Newport, Rhode Island. The brief demanded stamina, refinement and the ability to cross oceans without hesitation — qualities that still define her. The early drawings, correspondence and technical notes from Giles’ office reveal a yacht engineered not as an accessory, but as an essential part of the racing effort.

Her years as a French Navy training vessel added another layer to her structural credibility, while her later life under photographer Peter Lindbergh ushered in the collaboration with Christian Liaigre. That partnership introduced the understated, sculptural interior language that now runs through the yacht: dark timber floors, precise lines, generous volumes and a quietly flowing arrangement that feels both modern and faithful to the spirit of a classic yacht.

The vessel’s provenance is unusually well preserved. Her documentation spans:
– Photos from yard period in 2001
– Cartagena refit records (2015/16)
– Original 1962 architects’ and shipyard drawings
– The full Studio Liaigre project file, including handwritten annotations
 – And even a photograph of Christian Liaigre onboard 

Together, these materials form a continuous narrative of care, craftsmanship and thoughtful evolution — all of which accompany the yacht today.

Interior

LA FENICE’s interior captures the warmth and proportion of a classic yacht, balanced with the clean, understated detailing characteristic of Christian Liaigre. Large windows, generous headroom and an unbroken flow between spaces create an unusually open and inviting interior for a yacht of this size and vintage.  She was the first Christian Liaaigre boat and onne can see many of her design details mirrored in later vessels that came under the mastery of Studio Liaigre.

Current Use & Operational Status

LA FENICE is very much a living yacht rather than a showpiece. She has remained in regular use under her present owner, undertaking cruising between Ibiza and Sitges, an extended presence during the 37th America’s Cup, and ongoing time aboard in the Ebro Delta. Her owner participates as signed crew, keeping a close connection with the boat’s operation and ensuring she is exercised, tested and enjoyed as intended.

She is operated with a full-time crew, with a structured maintenance and improvement programme already established for the coming seasons, including the planned winter works for 2025/26. This consistent operational rhythm preserves her mechanical health and confirms that she remains a reliable, travelling yacht — maintained, used and cared for on a continuous basis.

Sustainability & Stewardship

LA FENICE’s environmental approach is shaped by her owner’s background in historic conservation and low-energy design, demonstrating how a classic 29-metre yacht can operate with a lighter footprint than many modern vessels. The guiding principle is straightforward: restore what endures, refine what matters, and engineer efficiency into every stage of operation.

Her reconditioned Gardner engines — rebuilt to full specification — deliver exceptionally low fuel consumption and extended service intervals, using only a fraction of the fuel required by contemporary engines in her class. Throughout the refit, key systems were reconsidered through life-cycle assessments to reduce long-term impact rather than simply minimise upfront emissions.

Significant sustainability measures include:

• Long-life Coppercoat hull protection, applied at commercial thickness for 25-year durability, reducing maintenance cycles and environmental release.
• A combined MARPOL-compliant black and grey water treatment plant, processing approximately 3,200 L/day and reducing greywater discharge by roughly 90%.
• Right-sized power generation, with onboard loads recalibrated to run efficiently on a downsized 25 kW generator.

These engineering decisions give LA FENICE an unusually light operational footprint for a 29-metre motor yacht, showing how responsible cruising and classic yacht preservation can align naturally and effectively.

Broker's Comments

In the 'golden years' era of British power-boats there were several yards making production twin-engined power-boats.  For discerning clients, W A Souter made not only race-winning boats but also finished them to very high standards.

Lakfors III is one such power-boat - more 'Bentley' than 'Jaguar' in car terms.

This Ray Hunt design is well-known in the classic boat fraternity.

Purchased by the Owner's father in 1984, much recent work and affection has been lavished on this craft, now powered by twin Yanmar straight 6 cylinder turbo diesel engines of 315 hp each.  (That compares with the original two 325 hp V8 petrol Mercruiser installations when raced in period).

Accommodation and Layout

From the bow going aft.

The fore-cabin has been extensively re-furbished compared to the cadet officer days.  Out went the spartan naval bunks and sea-toilet to be replaced by a double bed on the boat's centre-line with, to starboard, an en-suite electric head, hand-basin and shower.  
A new holding tank (46 UK gallons capacity) was also installed, appropriate with modern standards.

The large engine room has been extensively improved and modernised and is well equipped with an Eberspacher hot water heating unit and hot water tank with an electric immersion element when connected to shore-power.

The bridge (above the engine room) is very presentable, has a commanding view, and has all the boat's controls to hand, including for the recently installed electric windlass and bow-thruster.  There are extensive navionics.

Aft of the bridge and down some steps is a very useful cockpit/open area which, as  in the pictures, is under the new blue canopy.

Aft of that space is the light and airy aft cabin with has been extensively re-worked with significant seating, the addition of a modern galley to port and an electric heads and hand-basin to starboard.  
There is a central dinette table.  All is done well, and to modern standards.

Aft of that cabin there is another useful deck area with significant storage underneath.

Construction, deck, and exterior equipment

The 'Nelson' brand of boats have an enviable reputation for being thoughtfully designed for safe sea-worthiness, and being made to a very high standard.  Thorough GRP construction is the hall-mark of all Nelsons with a round chine and deep Vee entry to the bow.  

Stoic is one of the later models with a GRP deck that is over-laid with TreadMaster panels and recently re-painted.
As part of the MoD re-fit in 2014, some localised Osmosis treatment was carried out.

At the bow is the recently-fitted Lofrans 24 volt electric windlass with a 45 lb CQR anchor and 40 metres of 10 mm chain.
Also, a new bow-thruster was installed which, together with the contra-rotating propellors, greatly eases manoeuvring in a marina.

As one might expect in a vessel of this type the fairleads and cleats are substantial.
 
In the recent refit, all the skin fittings were renewed and many new stainless steel hand-rails were installed..

Aft of the bridge is a recent new canopy over the cockpit - the open space between between bridge and aft cabin with its raised edges - providing useful shelter.

Engines and Electrical equipment

Engines and gearboxes.

In 2014, whilst still with the Dartmouth College, the original diesel engines were replaced by two Perkins-Sabre 6 cylinder M130C engines that drive through PRM gearboxes through shafts to bronze counter-rotating 3-bladed propellors.  
The 'C' designation stands for 'Commercial' rating.
(Still being researched, but not yet confirmed, is the well-known Royal Navy practice of installing de-rated diesel engines to improve reliability and length of service). 

Two new diesel fuel tanks were installed, each of 75 UK gallons capacity, so 150 UK gallons in total.

During the refit the Eberspacher diesel-fired hot-water and blown warm air systems were thoroughly reconditioned.  The stored hot water is in a calorifier tank in the engine room having a heating element connected to the Shore-power system.

Also installed was a Shoreline 230V connector, and lithium batteries were installed with a 3Kw inverter.  

The galley has recent new electric: microwave; kettle; fridge/freezer installed.

Navionics 
There is a 12 volt drop-down box from the boat's 24 volt system.
During that re-fit in 2014, modern navionics were fitted including:

* Icom VHF DCS and AIS radio
* Garmin GPSmap 6012 Chart Plotter/Radar
* Garmin GM! 1 0 Log/Depth + GPS Repeater.

Additional Information

Few yachts offered for sale carry a history as clear and well-documented as Ecover of Skagen. She was built in 1991 by Devonport Management Ltd as one of the original Challenge 67 fleet, and competed as Group 4 under Mike Golding, winning her class in the round-the-world race against prevailing winds and currents. That pedigree is not merely decorative: it tells you that the underlying structure of this yacht was designed and built to sustain the most demanding offshore conditions a yacht can encounter.

 

In 2009 she was taken to Danish Yacht in Skagen, Denmark, for a rebuild of thoroughgoing ambition. The Challenge interior and deck arrangement were stripped entirely. She emerged with a classical cruising layout finished in bird's eye maple with a teak sole, hand-laid teak decks with black caulking throughout, a carbon spar from Nordic Mast, and a complete replacement of all electrical, hydraulic and plumbing systems. The result is a vessel that reads and presents as a purpose-built luxury cruising yacht. Her racing origins are evident only in her hull form, her structural robustness and the exceptional quality of her winch and hydraulic arrangements.

 

The current owners purchased her in France in 2014 and have sailed her extensively, including a transatlantic passage in 2017 as part of the ARC, followed by extended cruising in St Lucia, Antigua, Martinique and Grenada. She returned to the UK in 2021 via the Azores.

 

Maintenance during the current ownership has been systematic and well-documented. In 2023 a new Steyr SE236E40 230hp engine was fitted, giving her barely 15 hours at the time of listing. The hot water system was refurbished, all batteries replaced throughout, rudder bearings renewed, bilge pumps and windlass serviced, and hydraulic hoses replaced. In 2024 the rod rigging received its full five-year service and all halyards were replaced, navigation lights were renewed, and all mast LED lights replaced. The life raft, lifejackets and fire extinguishers have all been serviced within the past two years. This is not a yacht requiring a list of deferred work; she is ready for her next passage.

 

Ecover of Skagen accommodates eight in four cabins, each with its own en-suite heads and shower. The owner's cabin occupies the full beam aft, with a double berth of 150 by 210 centimetres, a two-seat sofa, dressing table and ample stowage. Two guest cabins forward of the saloon and a crew cabin in the forepeak complete the arrangement. The saloon is generous by any standard, with leather sofas, a dining table seating six, a Bose sound system and a concealed widescreen television that rises electrically from behind the seating. A separate nav station carries the full Furuno electronics suite and Simrad autopilot.

 

On deck the layout is clean and seamanlike. The hydraulic systems manage the genoa furler, vang, backstay rams and mainsail outhaul, reducing the physical effort required of a short-handed crew. Anderson primary and secondary winches handle the sail plan efficiently, and the Reckmann hydraulic genoa furler is well suited to extended offshore passages. The teak bathing platform opens hydraulically via remote control, giving straightforward access from a tender or from the water.

Accommodation and Layout

From the bow going aft, the guest cabin has a large double bed on the boat's centre-line with plenty of storage in lockers.

To one side, the en-suite facilities include a hand-basin, shower, and an electric Sanilav SN31 heads (to the holding tank) that uses fresh water to reduce odour. 

A short passage-way leads towards the saloon.

* To port, off that passage-way, is the galley that has been sympathetically upgraded.  Gone is the old oven to be replaced by a micro-wave and an electric ceramic-top hob (no gas on board this vessel).
The tall American fridge/freezer is dual voltage.
* To starboard, off that passage-way, is the dinette with seating and a table for dining with its cosy atmosphere. 

Up some steps to the saloon and to starboard is the elevated vessel's command console with wheelhouse sliding door to the side-deck.  To either side of the steering wheel are the gearbox selectors and engine throttle controls.  
As well as the engine instrumentation there is a full suite of navigation equipment including: Raytheon Log and Echo Sounder; Raytheon Radar; an Autohelm Autopilot; and a Huson 60/Kelvin Hughes type VHF radio.

The saloon has extensive settee-type seating to port with a coffee table.  To starboard is a wet bar, cocktail cabinet and a TV storage locker.  All windows have both blinds and curtains.

Some steps at the aft end of the saloon lead down to the master stateroom with its en-suite facilities with an electric Sanilav SN31 heads (to the holding tank) that uses fresh water to reduce odour.  
This is a private and luxurious room with its double bed and extensive storage and the two windows have venetian blinds.

Some steps at the aft end of the saloon lead up to the aft cockpit, a significant area for entertaining, being enclosed with full-length hard-top and new side screens.  As well as a table and chairs there are storage lockers for safety equipment including an 8 man liferaft (requires servicing).  For al-fresco dining there is a cockpit galley with sink, cooking area, and a free standing refrigerator.

A few steps lead up to the flybridge with the recently recovered seats and: 
- duplicate gearbox and engine control
- duplicate engine instrumentation
- Raytheon VHF
- Raytheon Log and Echo Sounder

Decks and Equipment

On the bow is a recently purchased Delta 40kg anchor with, also recently, an additional 30 metres of chain added to the previous length of chain.  The Owner reports that, when anchoring, it is now often the case that little chain is required to make fast because the anchor is so effective.

The electric windlass is a heavy-duty model made by Maxwell.

New teak decks were commissioned in 2022 and there are photographs concerning their construction before installation.

The flybridge has ample seating, all of which has been recently recovered.  Together with all the regular engine and navigation instrumentation there are gearbox control levers to one side of the steering wheel and engine throttle levers to the other side.  

At flybridge level, behind the solar panels, is the crane for the Zodiac 3.5 metre dinghy with its Honda 2.5 hp outboard.engine. 

Electrical, Galley, and Navigation details

Solar Panels, Batteries, and Inverter

In late 2023 new solar panels were installed together with a new inverter controller and new batteries (plus a new battery charger and change-over switches).  
One of those 200Amp/hour batteries is dedicated to start the port engine and the other two batteries of the same capacity supply the 'domestic' voltage circuits.  

Thus, 'Mood Swing' has full 230V and 12V capability providing independence from both marina and/or shore connections reducing the need to run either an engine or the generator to top up the batteries.  
The generator has its own 125 Amp/hour battery (new in 2023) for the ONAN 6.5 KVA generator.

Unless otherwise stated, the boat's electrical system is 12 volt.

In the galley the American fridge/freezer has a dual-voltage input and is so reliable that there has been no advantage in replacing it.

The original oven was removed and a new ceramic electric hob installed together with a new microwave oven. 

In the aft cockpit there is a 230 volt refrigerator to keep drinks cool. 

Navigation equipment is located at both the internal command console and the external flybridge station and can be summarised as:

* Internally at Command Console 
Raytheon Log and Echo Sounder
Raytheon Radar
Autohelm Autopilot
Huson 60/Kelvin Hughes type VHF radio.

* Externally on Flybridge
Raytheon Log and Echo Sounder
Autohelm Autopilot

Engines, Engine Room, and Tanks

The two Caterpillar V8 diesel engines are normally aspirated (non-turbo) for economy and ease of maintenance.  They are regularly serviced and the next full service is booked for March 2026.  Both engines start quickly, run very well with no smoke, and show the recommended oil pressures and temperature.  
The port engine has a calorifier providing hot water through the heat-exchanger.

In 2010 the raw water seacocks were replaced as were the raw water pumps on each engine as a precaution.  In 2014 replacement alternators were fitted.

The engines have only about 2,250 hours on each and now only run about 75 hours per year.

In the engine room the ONAN 6.5 kVA Generator has about 1,600 hours in total and was last serviced in 2022. 

There are two fuel tanks for the diesel, one for each engine, and each holds approximately 1,200 litres.

The single stainless steel water tank holds about 800 litres

There is also a holding tank with overboard and pump-out facilities.

Accessed is through a door in the aft state-room and, interestingly, the engine room has significant head-room of approximately 5' 8" - nearly full standing room.
Thus, no hatches need to be lifted in the saloon (or anywhere else) to access the engine room.
