Wooden Ships Comments on this Laurent Giles Vertue II

Based on the famous Vertue design by Laurent Giles, this is the very first example of what was known as the Vertue II, the same lines but built using GRP, completed in 1979 and built to Lloyds 100A1 classification.  Shortly after completion, the boat was exhibited at the London Boat Show in 1979.  This is the first and and possibly the best GRP Vertue II, a superb and immensely capable short handed blue water cruising boat.

The most notable feature of this boat compared to other examples of the Vertue II is her interior.  Because she was due to be exhibited at the boat show, the yard put a lot of time and effort into building her interior using solid teak giving her a cozy and comfortable feeling comparable to some of her earlier wooden sister ships.  Later boats were not fitted out to this high standard due to the extortionate cost.

Sold into Swedish ownership in 2010 where she has been based ever since, cruising the archipelagos and coasts of the Baltic.  Last year she was sold, bought by an Australian for an intended long distance cruise and she had considerable investment with new gear and equipment in readiness for that trip.  Unfortunately plans have changed, the trip cancelled and the boat must be sold once again.

The boat had been totally prepared for this voyage and is a fully equipped, turn key blue water cruising boat in ready to go condition.  Recent updates include:

2021 survey

New Liferaft

New roller furling headsail system

New batteries

New EPIRB and PLB

She has been well maintained and continually upgraded over the years.  She is well set up for single handed sailing, easily handled by one person and capable of offshore cruising in rough weather if required, the Vertue has often been referred to as the ‘greatest offshore cruiser’.

VIRTUE FIDELIS

Under sail some years ago off her home port of Dartmouth.

Immaculate topsides. Virtue Fidelis is one of the ‘long cockpit’ Vertues.

Launching, showing underwater shape. Being relaunched in November 2022.

Seamanlike accommodation with some classic Laurent Giles design detailing.

VERTUE FIDELIS V 40

Owner: Philip Key

Price Reduced! : £15,500

Email address: PHILIP KEY <[email protected]>

SPARROW rigged for doubling Cape Horn!

Completing her recent deep refit

Sparrow in cruising trim

Beautifully built interior

SPARROW VII 5

Still the most famous Vertue II since Daniel Hays and his father doubled the Horn in her,  20 years and one day after Bill Nance in Cardinal Vertue .

“Fiberglass/grp.  No engine. Deck, topsides and cabin awl-gripped 2023. Custom built and over rigged for Cape Horn voyage, 1985. My Dad and I had the unfinished hull shipped from England and built her up to be rolled over. She can be hung from her cleats and is 80 – 90% ready for the circumnavigation I am now too old for.”

Brooklin, Maine USA

Serif under sail in Plymouth

SERIF , V28 is for sale in Plymouth. Built by Cardnells in 1948, of mahogany on oak, she has the sublime, springy sheer of the early Vertues. She has a more spacious cockpit than most, and is an outstanding early Vertue in excellent condition. She is usually wintered ashore, inside at Mashfords.

Very reasonably priced at £14,500 because her owner, John Suter, is keen that she goes to the right home.

John Suter can be reached at [email protected]

Broker's Comments

These boat details are subject to contract. This Vertue is a lovely example that has not been modified. She is as originally intended and has been loved and looked after by her owners over the years. These boats are often referred to as 'go anywhere yachts'. They have traditional build quality but are simply rigged so they appeal to new and seasoned sailors alike. They are the personification of the Designer Laurent Giles offshore sailing experiences. Only a real sea dog could come up with such a marvellous design. So this boat is marketed at a sensible price to attract interest and offers. Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
