Designed by Burgess, Rigg & Morgan and built by Abeking & Rasmussen in Germany, there were fourteen 10-meter racing sloops built by A&R. Henry Rasmussen founded the shipyard in Lemwerder with his partner Georg Abeking and the shipyard continues today under that same name. Rasmussen gained his experience from time at sea as well as from different shipyards and was noted as a legendary skipper and gifted designer. His perfectionism extended into his craft as well as those who worked around him. He is known for elegant designs of fast boats. Since 1907 the shipyard has built over 6,400 vessels – mostly of wood – and today the company builds mostly boats in excess of 30 meters. Their original ships were built mostly of wood in the form of work boats, motor boats and sailboats. The characteristics of these vessels were that they built long lasting, high quality products that became well known. Clients were in the transportation business, governments as well as private owners. During the 1st World War they built mostly minesweepers. Today they still have the same clients, but the size of their boats have gone from smaller to very large. Whether it be a Hansajolle or a Concordia Yawl, boats from A&R have always stood for longevity, elegance and technical perfection and are still being cared for with affection to this day. The construction of this 10-meter is carvel mahogany planking on laminated white oak frames, white oak keel, fir deadwood, oak and steel floor timbers, bronze fastened and stainless-steel fastened (on the iron frames). The deck is ¾” fir plywood (2 layers of 3/8”) on fir deck beams. 18,000 exterior lead ballast. The vessel was partially rebuilt by W.C. Norman & Co, of Chicago in 1969 to include new laminated white-oak frames, keelson and horn timber, new fir deadwood, and new mahogany strip planking below the waterline. The boat is totally stripped and accommodations can be done to the new owner’s specifications. No electrical work has been started. There are no tanks installed. This is a project boat.
