BROKERS COMMENTS Her commissioning owner Jacob Isbrandtsen wanted a fast racer and well found cruiser – WINDROSE had a successful start and was to become a legend. Participant in the victorious American Admiral’s Cup Team of 1961 but long since retired from racing in the 1960s, her half model hanging in the NYYC is testament to her legacy. This may tell only half the story however as in the same ownership since 1980 WINDROSE has indeed proven herself an outstanding family cruiser CONSTRUCTION She was designed by Olin Stephens with Rod Stephens’ special innovative rigging and built at Derecktor Yards in Mamaroneck New York. Connecticut white oak was hand picked for the frames, African mahogany and teak for the interior, 1¼ inch Honduras mahogany for the turn of the bilge and ¾ inch Honduras mahogany over another layer of ¾ inch Honduras mahogany for the double-planked hull. Destined to race in the unforgiving North Atlantic, she was fitted with bronze floors, diagonal oak bracing and bronze strapping. In 1959, she was a state of the art racer with aluminum masts and titanium winches but fitted out inside to house her long distance crews in style and comfort as was still the custom and rule of the day.
