(US$60,441)  


50 sqm Bermudian sloop 1938 Before the 1939-45 war, Germany built a large number of yachts for training naval personel. Most were built to the prevailing Meter Rule. There were 4 of the largest, the 100sqm yachts, many of the 50 squares and even more of the smaller 30 squares. After the war, these yachts were seized as War Reparations and in a major logistical exercise they were returned to UK where they were shared out amongst the services yacht clubs. They were replaced by the Morgan Giles 42? sloops in the 1950?s and sold off into private ownership. This is 50 square meter yacht, ex Seetaube, was allocated to Manadon in Plymouth. She came into the present partnership ownership in 1965. She was sailed with no engine until 1972 when an engine was first installed. She was put ashore for a refit and after 5 years work was relaunched in 1984. She is still very much in commission and regularly used but the years have taken their toll on the owners more than the yacht and it is time for new ownership. Length on deck 41?6? Lwl 30? Beam 8? 10? Draft 5?6? Approx 7 tons deadweight. Built by Abeking and Rasmussen, Lemwerder, Germany in 1938 to a design by Henry Rasmussen. The shape is typical of the period, a sleek, elegant yacht with long fine overhangs. Planked in 7/8? mahogany, fastened with copper nails and roves to grown oak frames, 3 ¼? x 2 ¼? at 30? centres with 2 x steam bent oak timbers between on an oak back-bone. External lead ballast keel of approx 3 tons. Oak floors on the grown oak frames. Stainless steel straps on the steamed timbers The original iron strap floors were replaced in the refit with stainless steel and the throat bolts through the oak keel replaced in silicon bronze. The large ballast keel bolts were drawn, found to be in first class condition and replaced. The original deck was yacht laid in a hardwood, secret fastened, caulked and payed. The unknown timber is similar to teak but with a slightly different grain. The oak deck beams and the beam shelf are particularly heavy. In the refit, the original deck was carefully lifted, machined and turned and relaid on a marine ply sub deck, screwed down from above. The small amount of shortfall was made good with iroko and the occasional boards match in well. The deck is now yacht laid between varnished coverboards and king plank with varnished margin boards round the coach-roof and cock-pit coamings to produce a most attractive finish. The toe rail is set clear of the surface to allow rapid freeing of any water on deck. At the bow she has a twin chain rollers either side of a bronze stemhead fitting under a stainless steel pulpit, a pair of fine bronze fairleads on the toe rail, a massive oak Sampson post stepped through onto the apron, a bronze and teak bar cleat and a bronze mushroom vernt. The stainless steel forestay deck fitting is set well inboard back from the stem then the windlass, a varnished mahogany fore hatch and the mast stepped through the deck in front of the coach-roof with a fife rail round the mast base. On the aft deck a central heavy wooden cleat to takes the stern lines with fine bronze fairleads on the taff rail. Stainless steel pushpit with a varnished seat across it above the twin gas bottles lodged in their mounts on the deck. Nicely shaped stanchion posts and twin guard wires. A high stainless steel gantry above the pushpit carries the radar scanner, VHF ariel, GPS ariel and radar reflector. Coach-roof coamings in varnished mahogany with 3 fixed oval ports each side and a pair of opening bronze ports forward. Coach-roof deck cleverly domed to keep the coaming profile low while giving head-room below, laid in t&g pine, the original canvas replaced by glass cloth and resin and painted.
