41' 1904 Gaff Cutter AEOLUS For Sale

Wooden Ships Comments on this 41' Gaff Cutter
Built in California in 1904, she is a typical Victorian plank-on-edge design with a deep draft, narrow beam and elegant counter stern.
The boat underwent a major rebuild 1982/1983 with new frames and planking, new deck and new rig, imported into the UK in 2003. Unfortunately the rig balance was wrong and she proved a very difficult boat to handle, so when she eventually came into the present ownership, Ed Burnett was asked in 2011 to design a proper well balanced sail plan that has proved to be very successful. All spars apart from the mast were replaced by Collars, new sails made by SKB in Falmouth and the boat now balances properly, is thought to be quite fast and looks far more elegant.
Interior joinery has been fitted by the present owner to suit her current use which is weekend and regatta sailing, so she now has 8 berths, plenty of headroom and good size saloon allowing the whole crew to sit and socialise.
An impressive and powerful gaff cutter that has been used regularly and continually maintained in recent years, capable of performing well in the classic regattas if desired. She has the reassurance of a largely new hull, rig and machinery and a clean insurance survey from 2017. Kept covered all year to protect the decks and varnish.
2023 insurance survey available on request.

A sailor’s boat! Clean and simple.

I think my old friend Tony Carter used to work on this boat.

That's one hell of a sailboat. I like how it doesn't have port lights. It could use a little galley, perhaps where you hang the coats & foul weather gear. Great sailboat, I bet she's super strong, & sails pretty fast considering her narrow beam.
