SOUTHWINDS

Southwinds is a magnificent 61ft’ sailing yacht constructed in 1950. Built with Huon Pine planks and spotted gum ribs, Southwinds holds a significant role in English design pedigree as well as Australia’s yachting history. Southwinds was designed by Robert Clark the famous designer of Gypsy Moth IV, aboard which Sir Francis Chichester became the first man to complete a single handed circumnavigation of the globe. Her original plans date back to 1948 and include pencils of her keel profile and cabins, inks of her lines, half breadth and ketch. Sail plans lie in London’s Greenwich Museum and her specifications are registered with Lloyds.
