Sailboats - Cruising

WOTAMA is a 38' 6" auxiliary ketch, built 1967-1974 by Cyril and Margaret Wriede in Bundaberg, Queensland, Australia to the 1947 design of Edward R Weber, then of Norge Boats Inc, Darien CT (published in The Rudder, January 1950, pp 62-63).

In 2012 Ashley Butler was in Cornwall to be found building two comparable yachts, one for himself and another for a client more or less in parallel, though no surprise that his client’s commission took priority when it came to meeting the completion date.

JAGA, a 38′ wooden Atkin Ingrid, launched in 1955 after a 7 year build on Vancouver Island, BC by John Lerwill.

Extensive restoration by David Dickinson and relaunched in 1996.

Sistership to Lin and Larry Pardey's TALEISIN which was meticulously built by Kenneth O. Minor. This sailboat is a beautiful seaworthy vessel and a one of a kind hand built art piece.
