46' G.L. Watson Gaff Cutter NELL from 1887

More detail on this classic sailing yacht for sale: Wooden Ships Comments on this G.L. Watson Gaff Cutter Designed by G.L. Watson and according to the Greenock Herald, she was launched on 24th April 1887 from the yard of Thomas Orr Jr. from his Greenock yard on the Clyde. The yacht was built to a commission for Robert Cowan Robertson who was a student at the Glasgow School of Art and an exact contemporary of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. The commission was No.134 for Watson with lines based on those of the Loch Fyne Skiff type fishing vessels which have a very distinctive stern, generous freeboard and a straight stem. One of her defining features is her interior and most of the salon joinery is original.  Her elaborate decor was a result of Robertsons wealth and artistic inclinations and is characteristic of Clydeside fashionable interiors of the time.  One of her most notable features is a pair of stained glass sliding panels depicting a stylised Scottish thistle very much in the ‘Glasgow’ style, and although highly unusual for a yacht interior, they represent the true essence of this yacht, her history and her period. The raised and fielded oak panelling, fluted pilasters, Ionic capitals and egg and dart cornice throughout the saloon represent the highest possible standard of joinery. Bought by the present owner in 2009, there then started a major rebuild of the boat involving every facet of the hull, rig, systems and interior.  The keel came off, stem replaced, 80% new planking and frames.  Complete new deck structure and interior replaced or refurbished with all new systems and a complete new rig.  This remarkable rebuild was imagined by the yachts eccentric owner whos ambition, vision and drive have helped give a new lease of life to this unique yacht. The yacht was launched again in 2017. This yacht is a completely unique piece of maritime history, unusual in her design, rich in history and pedigree and with a stunning interior first conceived and fitted over 125 years ago. ========================== Get in Touch Have a question for Wooden Ships?
