ARGYLL is a truly exceptional yacht. Designed by Olin Stephens to build on the success of STORMY WEATHER and DORADE this yacht has a successful race record in her own right and is known to been one of her designer’s favourites. Perhaps the same could be said of Ed Burnett, whose design skills and empathy for this boat have been a continuous thread throughout her restoration. ARGYLL?s potential to win on the classic race circuit is almost as exciting as the balance of her Olin Stephens lines……..breathtakingly beautiful.

The rebuild and refit work is of the very highest standard. The hull and deck work was carried out by Blake Brothers in Portishead, with the interior, systems and rig completed by MB Yachts Ltd at Shillingstone in Dorset. Considerable attention has been paid to ensure that ARGYLL retains her original character, with small modifications made to enhance her practicality as a cruising yacht. Where possible, original deck gear has been reinstalled. Where this was missing or required replacement however, new items have been designed and machined in keeping with the original. Powered deck gear is fitted to ease handling when the vessel is not racing but otherwise as a general rule the original deck layout has been retained.

Her present owner?s affection for her inherent qualities have inspired him to even greater efforts in bringing her up to a standard of finish which frankly places ARGYLL second to none.
