Design 2065 C1 Yankee 26
Here's another design where an existing hull shape was used for a new production yacht. In January we posted an article about a 1/4-tonner built by South Hants Marine - the She 27. The same hull shape was used for the Yankee 26. Production ran from 1973 until Yankee Yachts ceased operation in 1975. Here are the plans. Principal Dimensions LOA 26'-0" LWL 20'-5" Beam 8'-8" Draft 4'-9" Displacement 5,355 lbs Ballast 2,150 lbs Sail Area 298 sq ft
Design 2186 C1 IW 40
This fiberglass production yacht was built by the IW-Varvet AB shipyard of Sweden. Production ran from approximately 1977-1983. Here are the plans. An owner was kind enough to send us these images. Here are some interior views. Please note these images correspond with the general arrangement in the brochure as shown below, not the general arrangement as shown above. Main Cabin Convertible Settee Galley Nav Area And finally here's a copy of a brochure. Double click for zoom. Principal Dimensions LOA 39'-6" LWL 28'-6" Beam 11'-5" Draft 6'-3" Displacement 16,660 lbs Ballast 8,957 lbs Sail Area 716 sq ft
2062 C1 Sunbird II
As far as we can tell, the Endo Corporation of Japan was a 6-time repeat client, ordering 1/4, 1/2 and 1-tonner racing yachts in the early 1970s. Most of not all were built by the Kato Boat Company of Yokosuka City, Japan in either wood or fiberglass. Here we have the one-tonner Sunbird II. She was built of wood and launched in 1970. She is based on a very well utilized design, #2062, but with modifications (optimizations) to her rig, keel and rudder. Here's a look at her shape. Principal Dimensions LOA 38'-7" LWL 29'-7" Beam 11'-5" Draft 6'-6" Displacement 17,903 lbs Ballast 7,180 lbs
Design 2560 C1 Tiger Too
Relevant to my earlier posting of today here is hull #2 of the S&S 48' built by Bennett Brothers yachts. This design utilized the same hull mold as Jam Session, but with a center cockpit deck layout. It is also a two cabin boat but with a full beam owner's stateroom aft. Here are the plans.
Design 1999 C1 Ruffian
This past May we posted an article about the Yankee 30, design 1999. A copy was built as a on-off by Swarbrick Brothers Yachts of Australia and simply called an S&S 30. The year was 1975. Here she is, now called Kobi. She looks to be in pristine condition.
