Classic Yacht PURITAN Returns to Charter Market in the Mediterranean

By Rebecca Bradbury 23 May 2016

The 36m/118ft sailing yacht PURITAN is available to charter again for the first time in 25 years, and will be available throughout the summer in Mediterranean hotspots such as the French Riviera and Monaco.

Built in 1931 by US shipyard Electric Boat Company, PURITAN is one of the most original and meticulously restored great sailing yachts of the early 20th century. With such a rank, she is guaranteed to provide an unforgettable charter experience for yachting enthusiasts.

Thanks to her original design by John Alden, the gaff schooner boasts extremely strong and reliable lines, which have earned her the title of a true blue ocean cruiser.

Still embodying the charm and elegance of the 1930s, she is perfect for discovering the golden age of yachting in the glamorous surrounds of the French Riviera and Monaco.

Views of these stunning cruising grounds can be taken in from the deck of charter yacht PURITAN. A large table seating up to eight guests forms an idyllic alfresco dining setup in the cockpit, and there are also lounging and sunning opportunities.

Inside, meanwhile, the main salon stretches across the hull amidships, and retains the yacht's traditional style and original Oregon pine wood furniture.

Underneath an old-fashioned lifting skylight is a lounge formed of a comfortable settee and armchairs, and an adjoining dining area can seat up to 10 guests for those more formal occassions of a luxury yacht charter.

There is accommodation for eight guests in four staterooms, including a spacious master suite, two VIP cabins and a convertible cabin, which can also serve as an office.
