English

Commissioned by her current owner and launched in 2000 SHONA is an ‘in class’ modern example of this classic Clyde Estuary design. Drawn by Alfred Mylne to provide owners with close and competitive one-design racing while being capable of cruising the islands during holiday.

Unlike her sisters ships built pre-1960 SHONA is constructed using modern techniques with a wooden composite hull of strip-planked cedar fully saturated and sheathed in epoxy laminate. The benefits being a relatively low-maintenance wooden classic, eligible to compete with her sisterships. Great care was taken during her construction to ensure weight distribution and her overall displacement adhered to the original class rules. Having provided her owner with over 20 years of enjoyable sailing this modern classic is now seeking a new owner who wishes to enjoy the pleasures of classic sailing in a truly unique modern yacht.

THE CLASS:

The Scottish Islands Class One Design was developed to create a one design fleet for the west coast of Scotland. The yachts providing their owner with competitive one design racing while also being capable of cruising the west coast and islands; they were designed to have an inboard engine installed, unusual for one design class of the period. Designed in the late 1920’s by the revered Scottish yacht designer Alfred Mylne, the class was built by the world-famous McGruer’s of Clynder yard. Only 12 Islander class yachts were ever built. The original five were built in 1929, another five just before the start of World War II and one more in 1959, all built by McGruers. SHONA is the final example of the design to have been to date.
