Historical Notes and Racing Record


ELEONORA is an exact replica of the schooner WESTWARD. That yacht was designed by Nathanael Greene Herreshoff, the ‘Wizard of Bristol’, built as hull number 692 at the Herreshoff Manufacturing Co Bristol, RI USA and launched on 31st March 1910.

Herreshoff won fame as the designer of the America’s Cup defenders which turned back all six challengers from 1893 to 1920 and WESTWARD was undoubtedly the fastest schooner in the world in 1910 and in subsequent years. With Captain Charlie Barr, one of the finest racing skippers in the world at her helm, she raced successfully against such yachts as BRITANNIA, LULWORTH and METEOR II, winning numerous trophies. For thirty seven years she was to grace the yachting scene representing all that was best in yacht design and workmanship and became arguably one of the most famous and best known racing schooners in the world.

ELEONORA was built at the Van der Graaf shipyard in Holland and launched in March 2000. Since then, she has also successfully participated in a number of classic sailing regattas and hosted on board many appreciative charter guests.
