Brokers comments PELAGIC exhibits all those hallmarks of period and craftsmanship for which her designer and builder Bob Davis was renowned – embodying the experience of an era earlier than her real age would suggest along with that double ended character associated with North American boats. She carries good a sail in style, is well equipped with some beautiful original features – and spacious below. History Robert W. “Bob” Davis who died in 1998 was an artisan in the world of wooden boat building – a superb craftsman who built boats from small dinghies to 45 foot ketches on his own, including making the patterns for the bronze castings and making the spars. He knew the yacht builders of the earlier part of the 20th century; visiting the many famous yards in the Eastern United States, including those of Herreshoff and Henry B. Nivens. Gaining international recognition during the 1930s with his work on International 14s, his first large yacht was a double ender and PELAGIC, another in a similar design he built for his own personal use. Her present owner knew him and it was later on that they sailed together. Pleased as Bob was for her to be in good hands so now her owner is looking for someone to carry on the tradition of care.
