2013 Sloep Montagu Whaler850m

Beautiful stylish luxury Whaler Lounge sloop of 8.50 m. Built in 1972 at the Spitfire yard in Southampton, England, as a whaler for the frigate HMS Kent of the British Navy. The hull is based on the whaling boats from the 18th and 19th centuries, which later became known as Montagu whalers, named after Admiral Montagu (1910). Fully restored in 2013.

The ship has always been stored indoors, so in winter it is in the shed and in summer in a boathouse. Top finished and maintained; cladding of solid teak (1 cm) and mahogany, and much of the hardware is still original and in bronze. Furthermore, modern in terms of technology and equipment. Under the hood is a heavy 3-cylinder Vetus and at the front a strong bow thruster.

In short, a unique ship that is suitable for both inland and offshore waters. Unsinkable due to 3 separate airtight compartments and very stable because the ship is built of 1.7 cm thick polyester! Course stable and easy to sail. Once used to bring sailors ashore.

Seeing is buying!
