Owners Comments
"Waratah" is a 1969, Contessa 26 (Hull No. 197), built by Jeremy Rogers in Lymington. She was purchased by us in Ballycastle, Co. Antrim in March 2002. Before this she had two previous owners. In her previous ownership it is understood she generally spent no more than two months afloat each year. This was due to insurance restrictions related to weather. Since 2002 she has always been wintered ashore from October to May.
Construction
GRP hull and deck, long keel (encapsulated lead) and transom/keel hung rudder.
Rig and Rigging: Masthead Sloop, fitted with a Furlex 100s Headsail Furling System (2003) and an Inner Forestay. Standing Rigging was renewed in 2007. All running rigging is in good condition.
Sails: All her current sails were made by McWilliam Sails in Crosshaven. Prior to lifting out for the Winter the working sails are rinsed in fresh water, dried and stored. The sails are as follows:
1 x Mainsail – Good Condition, with 3 x slab reefing points
2 x Headsails – 145% and 130% both in good condition
1 x Storm Jib – as new condition
Electrics: Icom VHF Radio. Raymarine Depth Sounder. Aquamarine Tricolour Mast-Headlight. Pulpit, pushpit and mast fitted with Aquamarine Navigation lights.
Accommodation: 2 x Berths in the forepeak and opening deck hatch. 2 x Berths in the saloon with lee cloths. Heads is located between the saloon and forepeak to starboard, hanging locker opposite to port. Two burner Eno gas cooker and sink.
The following works have been carried out since 2002:
- Rudder replaced with Iroko and oak tiller (spare tiller also included)
- Rudder Pintles replaced with Bronze Pintles
- Original fuel tank was replaced with a 10 gallon, "316 stainless steel", internally baffled tank
- Primary and Spinnaker winches replaced with Lewmar ST16 and Lewmar 6 winches respectively
- Original Circular Forehatch was replaced with square "Gebo" hatch
- Genoa Tracks Replaced with Barton Tracks
- Hull Stripped Back to gelcoat and 6 x coats of Awlgrip Expoxy Paint applied.
General Comment
The Contessa 26 is a long-keeled sailing vessel based on the lines of the Folkboat. Whilst not as roomy as a more modern vessel, their relatively narrow beam enables an easily-driven hull with a light and very balanced helm. They are extremely well mannered to sail and have a very sea-kindly motion.
Broker's Comment
"This yacht has classic lines and will be a joy to sail. She is excellent value and viewing is recommended."
