Broker's Comments
FULL SPECS - BROKER'S COMMENTS - 3 VIRTUAL TOURS - 1 VIDEO - 117 PHOTOS - CAN BE VIEWED OF THIS VESSEL!
This classic 1953 39’ Concordia yawl was designed by the famous C. Raymond Hunt and meticulously built by Abeking & Rasmussen in Germany. Her design is balanced to sail in all types of conditions and sets the standard for comfortable cruising on a stellar vessel.
As you admire her exterior and design, she just appears to be a good all-around vessel, not too deep a draft with a rather full bow and narrow stern. She's very symmetrical and carries the legacy of being seaworthy, comfortable and versatile.
Concordia yawls have proven themselves in winning some of the most challenging offshore races.
She's in need of some TLC to bring her back to her original luster, since the current owner has not been able to dedicate the time over the last few years to provide the usual care that he has lavished on her due to family concerns, so she’s in need of some painting, brightwork, minor repairs and cleaning.
There were 103 Concordias produced between 1938 and 1966, making the Concordia yawl class the largest class of large one-design wooden sailboats.
The Concordia 39 is a sought-after classic cruising and racing yacht enjoyed and appreciated by generations of sailors.
The most recent survey was completed 12/21/2011 and was assessed as in “very good” condition. See the extensive list of enhancements, upgrades and improvements under Construction Details.
