Fair Lady

Fair Lady first visited our yard in 1996 when we completed extensive engineering works following John Winterbotham's survey of the hull and systems. At the same time we faithfully preserved - to interior designer John Munford's drawings - the 1920s style, with original custom-made furniture, fine wooden inlay and art nouveau fittings.

During this initial refit the hull was found to be in need of a great deal of work and some 60 tonnes of steel was replaced. The interior and all systems were removed and the major work of bringing the hull and integral tanks back to A1 standard was started. At the end of the nine month refit the yacht still retained all the character of a period vessel featuring all the comforts of a contemporary motor yacht. She has remained a loyal visitor to the yard with subsequent visits in 2000 and 2006.
