Description
This boat is a 1949 Alan Buchanan designed 19ft
Wild Duck Sloop. The original owner started building this beautiful yacht in
1979 and took meticulous care in how he did so, using quality materials. He
first launched her in 2016. She is constructed with ¾ inch Brazilian
Mahogany on an Oak Hull – Edge nailed strip planking with Cascophen
Adhesive. She is epoxy sheathed to her water line and is fitted with a 10hp
Beta Marine Engine.
Sellers comments
I discovered the boat where she has been left out
and suffered some neglect from the elements. I spent several months
restoring her with the help of professional services who re-caulked the teak
deck and restored some of the woodwork. She is painted with marine paint by
‘Skippers’ (Colour Avorio - Ivory) and was sealed with an epoxy coating and
antifouled before she went back into the water in 2021. Repairs were made to
the vessel’s mast and the engine has been serviced by a former RNLI
technician, although with only 28 hours use, it is in superb condition.
She is a real classic, meticulously built over 37
years with love and commitment. She is in great condition due to a lot of
work to restore her from where she had been left out.
There are minor areas requiring on going work as
part of her general maintenance, some of which are inside, but nothing
outside of normal expectation for the management of a wooden boat. I would
like to see her go to someone who has a real appreciation for this style of
boat and the craftsmanship, materials and history behind her. She really is
a most seaworthy solid wooden boat with, style, character, and charm. I am
confident that you will not find another ‘Wild Duck’ anywhere which is built
to the same standard.
Please see the attached two you tube videos for
viewing along with some before and after photos from the current owner’s
restoration.

For Sale: The Famous Eventide 24, 'Borer Bee'
This is one of the very first Eventides to be built, sail number 3!
She was sailed from Singapore to the UK in 1958!
She has been through many owners and we hoped that the present owner
would be restoring her to sail gently on a lake in the north somewhere,
sadly the owners health has suddenly deteriorated and he is forced to sell.
Step forward a competent woodworker and enthusiast, to save this little bit
of history.
She should be on the 'Classic Boat' register.
This is a photo of borer Bee, taken by former owner Tony some years ago.
she could look like this again, with a little work!
Famous Eventide number 3, 'Bora Bee'. See article on logs page of the
Eventide website about the return voyage from Singapore to the UK in 1958.
She is in good condition and does not need much work. She is
hardwood built.
Work needed.
1. Small amount of rot on the transom coaming.
2. Repair at foot of mast for crack and some rot.
3. Standing rigging is required.
4. Bilge keel shoes need replacing.
She has a full set of sails and all the spars.
She did has an outboard bracket on the stern, but still has the
sterntube and shaft etc. so an inboard could be fitted again. (Was a Stuart
Turner).
She sits on my heavy duty road trailer, the hitch has just been replaced.
This is not included in the sale, but could be hired to move her.
I have invested over £5000 in saving Bora Bee, she just needs a good home.
I am returning to the USA for medical treatment and cannot complete
restoration.
Price £1000
'Borer Bee' is at present in Scotland.
