For Sale:- Golden Hind 31
'Fallow'
Golden Hind 31
‘Fallow’. Class No. 250.
Restoration Project
GRP composite . Professionally built early 1990s.
One of the most recent examples of this classic
cruising yacht.
Triple keel, double chine, cutter rig.
The sea-kindly but shoal draft design lends itself
to coastal exploration and drying moorings, but some have made long ocean
voyages including transatlantic.
High spec GRP hull and cockpit moulded by
Skentelbery.
Cabin, teak-strip deck and interior woodwork
completed by a professional cabinet maker.
Bukh DV20 engine in good order. Proctor spars. Set
of cruising sails OK for continued use.
Taylor paraffin cooker and cabin heater. Inventory
includes 2 CQR type anchors and chain + kedge, Garmin GPS, Seafarer radio,
NASA Echo sounder, Navtex, pumps, warps, shore electrics, leisure battery in
fair condition and sundry small bits of kit. Also an autohelm, remote
steering gear, an old inflatable and a liferaft (out of test).
This boat is effectively complete, as equipped and
last used for coastal cruising, but has been stored ashore and not sailed
for several years. In consequence, woodwork, cordage, paintwork and possibly
electrics are in need of some repair /refurbishment / replacement. Recent
inspection indicates that the hull is still in basically very sound
condition with little or no sign of osmosis. The separate rudder moulding
does have some pitting.
A little work is needed to make the boat sailable
and a fair bit more to make her properly fit and smart. The present owner
(since 2006), is now age beset and needs to pass her on.
Fallow would make an attractive DIY project for
someone who wants to wind up with a good quality example of the class for a
sensible price. Lying ashore Northwest England.

Galley and sink with gimbaled gas stove and oven.
Collapsible table
Extendable Chart table
VHF radio set
Lots of storage space
Built over the course of 10 years by carpenter Frank Mayo,
"Paubi-Lou" has been lovingly and skillfully built. Most of her life she
has been sailed out of Fleetwood and sailed up and down the West coast
of the UK and across to Ireland. An accomplished sailor, Frank won many
club races on her in his time. She is full of character and a fantastic
boat with impressive performance to windward and fast acceleration.
Frank lengthened the original 26ft design to 28ft to give more space and
headroom as well as make her longer and faster in the water. I acquired
"Paubi-Lou" due to Frank being unable to sail her anymore, she was
recently featured in the RCC tidings magazine covering my time with her.
A considerable amount of time and effort has been undertaken in order to
restore her to her former glory, as well as update her. She has often
been commented on for her attractive looks during our time on the
Hamble. Unfortunately I am now
looking to sell her now due to a change
in career. Looking
for a loving new home, with enthusiastic owners who will carry on her
Eventide legacy.
She is currently berthed on the Hamble
River, Southampton with berth paid up until April 2025.
Price reduction to £3,000!

For Sale: GRP Eventide 26.
Project boat. 'Glass Tide'.
This photo of her taken when crossing
the Estuary over 15 years back... since then she was taken ashore to fix
various issues, engine, rudder, cooker etc. but has not been finished,
as owner in poor health.
Below a selection of photos of the gear
and the past and current condition.
Eventide 26 moulded in GRP. As far as we know the only one
ever moulded in GRP.
I,
John W, sailed in
escort with him across the Thames Estuary in 2010
and
can tell you, she sailed well.
It is now a project, as the boat was taken ashore at
Tollesbury 15 years or so back for what was supposed to be a year’s refit, a
change of engine and stern gear, sort hatches and free jammed inboard steel rudder,
replace rubbing bands and a lick of paint etc. Then after a
few years, John became poorly... So she is still there.
Ali mast and
roller reefing gear in store there too.
I, John W. have helped him with a lot of the work, cutting out the old
seized inboard rudder and acquired a set of new stainless rudder fittings for transom
rudder. Never fitted. There was even a cardboard
template made, with which to base the new laminated rudder on! Fitting
the bearings etc. should be an afternoons job, making the new rudder, a long weekend!!
The very old Volvo 5hp was removed and a good Yanmar GM10 9hp
acquired, engineer refurbished. In store in Tillingham. New
engine bearers have to be made and fitted.
The old prop shaft and prop removed and also needs replacing….
One inch ID bearings and stern tube still in place.
Replacement stainless fuel tank ready to fit.
The rusted bilge keels removed and
taken for repair, they are with John W in Tillingham, all
re-welded and looking good but now just needing the new square
holes cutting in the top of one of the keels for the new galvanised bolts, (I only did
one keel for him). The other will need the round holes squared with a
metal blade in a jig saw, a days work (and 20 blades)Then they will need galvanising.
As will the modified tabernacle, acquired to convert the rig into
one that can be easily lowered, without yard assistance.
I, John W, attacked two of the deck hatches, repaired them and epoxied
them and then added grey Treadmaster to them. I seem to recall the
third hatch was not removed??
I also made him a new bowsprit from a plank of teak he supplied,
donated a few fittings to fasten to it, and have that here along with
the Yanmar and loads of other bits… the
bow roller assemble would benefit from re galvanising
too!
He also has a garage full of gear in Milton Keynes.
A quick peek into John's garage/boat store!
Were I ten years younger I would have leapt at the chance to restore
her, as she will not suffer any wood rot in the hull, there is none!
I would have passed it to the family safe in the
knowledge that it would need very little TLC!.
She would be trail-able, just, with the right 4 wheel trailer and
a heavy tow vehicle, Land Rover or the like. OK for
taking home at the end of the season.
(I have a suitable trailer that could be hired to shift her..my
own 6 wheel trailer, stored in Tillingham. )
I know she had near new tan sails,
slab reef main, staysail and roller reefing genoa. Only
used for a few weeks, and loads of other kit and gear in store at Milton
Keynes, and here with me in Tillingham.
Gimbaled
Cooker with 2 burners, grill and oven, pan
fiddle rails.
Berth cushions. water tank with pump for
galley. Cabin lights. Clock and barometer.
Stainless stern ladder, (removed to make way for rudder fittings),
but able to be shifted slightly to port by re-using 2 of the original holes.
Lower hole has been left, just to stbd, will be ideal for
new gas locker drain, locker yet to be fitted.
2
‘Camping gaz’ bottles to suit. Fire
extinguishers (2). (Not sure of date on these.. expired!!.)
Radar reflector to fit to mast.
Fenders, warps. Simpson Lawrence Sea
toilet. SL400.
length 5/16 anchor chain and anchor.
Anchor ball day mark, paraffin lamp.
Stowe log, Echo sounder.
2 Bilge pumps. Fog horn, 6 switch panel.
Navico VHF radio plus emergency antenna.
Boat hook, 3 Tannoy vents, 3 lifejackets, curtains, first aid
kit, lifebuoy.
Host of other extras.
Boat and mast etc. in Tollesbury boat yard, will need trailer to
shift it.
Some of these parts are in Tillingham and some Milton Keynes.
A lot of work but the price will be £1000, ono.
Being
realistic, and not in the best health, John has wisely decided to
pass her on.

For Sale: Golden Hind ketch 'Safrel'
The Golden Hind 31’s
are one of Maurice Griffith’s most popular designs. They have completed
numerous ocean crossings but at the same time they are capable of navigating
shallow waters, and drying out upright thanks to the long keel and bilge
plates. They are spacious and comfortable to live aboard, with over six feet
headroom throughout. The ketch rig gives flexibility and easy handling, and
the materials quality is high – the cabin sole boards are one-inch thick
solid teak, and most of the exterior woodwork is also teak.
‘Safrel’
was built to a high standard in 1976 by Terry Erskine in Plymouth. She has
had only two owners, last changing hands in 1999. The hull is GRP, with
solid mahogany coachroof sides and epoxy-sheathed ply decks. A taller mast
and a bowsprit were added by the first owner, to increase the standard
rather conservative sail area. She underwent a very comprehensive
re-fit/rebuild in 2001-2, including new engine, electrics and upholstery,
and the installation of a proper navigator’s station in place of the
standard drop-down table. Since then much else has been renewed or
refurbished – for example, all-new canvas work in 2019, bilge plates
grit-blasted and epoxied in 2021, and she has been consistently maintained.
All receipts are available. She is on the Part 1 Register.

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.
