1959 Concordia YAWL, , This is a beautifully restored Classic Concordia Yawl easily balanced with jib and jigger or just the main. The very graceful lines of the C. Raymond Hunt Design were originally brought to life by Abeking &amp; Rasmussen of Germany. Health issues have made it necessary for the current owner to discontinue enjoying the pride of ownership and sense of accomplishment he has recently enjoyed knowing that "Swift" is now as good as she can be with many hours of work from quality craftsmen who removed and repaired or replaced anything that wasn't exactly right. Now, she is in "sail away" condition. This is a tremendous opportunity for you. All the hard work has been done and done right. Concordia Yawls from Wikipedia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Concordia Yawls #85 Arapaho and #82 Coriolis The Concordia yawl was designed in 1938 by naval architect C. Raymond Hunt with input from Llewellyn and Waldo Howland, Clinton Crane, Fenwick Williams and Frank Paine.[1] Earlier that year, the Colin Archer-designed Norwegian pilot cutter, Escape, belonging to Llewellyn Howland's family, was destroyed by the Great Hurricane of 1938. Howland subsequently commissioned the Concordia Company, which he had founded in 1926 and at the time was run by his son Waldo, to design and build a replacement. Howland wanted a sailboat that could be used for both cruising and racing and withstand the heavy wind and choppy waters of Buzzards Bay; thus the Concordia design number fourteen, a 39'10" yawl, was created. There were 103 Concordias produced between 1938 and 1966, making the Concordia yawl class the largest class of large one-design wooden sailboats.[2] The first four Concordias were produced in Massachusetts. Concordia commissioned the Abeking &amp; Rasmussen shipyard in Lemwerder, Germany to build the last 99 (26 of them as a 41' Model).[3] 102 of the 103 Concordias are still in existence today.[4] Over the years the Concordia yawl has won numerous races including the prestigious Newport Bermuda Race (1954 &amp; 1978), the Annapolis Race (1955), Cowes Week (1955) and the Marblehead-to-Halifax Race (1955 &amp; 1997). 1954 Newport Bermuda Race - Malay, Concordia #2, Dan Strohmeier. 1955 Annapolis Race - Actaea, Concordia #17, Henry Sears. 1955 Cowes Week - Harrier, Concordia #30, Ray Hunt. 1955 Marblehead-to-Halifax Race - Malay, Concordia #2, Dan Strohmeier. 1978 Newport Bermuda Race - Babe, Concordia #26, Arnold Gay. 1997 Marblehead-to-Halifax Race - Crocodile, Concordia #67, Robert Crocker.
