In 1911, in the height of Shanghai’s treaty port boom days, this yacht was built for the prestigious Shanghai Yacht Club’s Commodore as his coastal racer cruiser and her racing career was widely covered in the media then. As Shanghai declined, she was brought to Singapore where she was sunk to avoid capture by the invading Japanese army and brought up after the war. Since the mid 1950s she has been a constant and much loved fixture on the region’s sailing scene as the oldest Asian built sailing yacht.

She has been sympathetically modernized without losing her period charm and retains many original features including original teak and brass fittings. Her spacious decks with extensive shading mean guests are not confined to the rear cockpit and children are to be found enjoying themselves in the net under the bowsprit whilst adults bask in the sun or enjoy the breezes under the shady canopy.

Equipped with a barbecue, deck shower, toilet, fan cooled day bed area below and a dinghy she is ideal for that leisurely cruise soaking up Langkawi’s lovely scenery and reflecting on what sailing was like nearly 100 years ago.
