Does anyone know about this Yacht

I think: it was built in the late 70's maybe 80's, was advertized by a broker in England in the 90's, sistership to Nadir II and Progression. Fan tail, 85+ feet, cat powered, stainless steel cap rails, slighty beamy, originally built for a Shell oil executive.

This is how i remember the yacht any info on the boat would be great. I tried to buy the other two at different times 10 years ago and I think this is the best of the three for me I would like to purchase this one. I never could forget her lines/profile

I see, the vessel I that I am looking for, I think was named, "Rose of Newport" but it has been a long time.

Thanks for commenting

I agree and I really like that look The boat I am looking for was about 90 feet. The ones I mentioned Nadir and Progression all had canoe sterns.

You have a great eye this is exactly what I am talking about.
I think the ship in the picture is Nadir II but maybe Progression they were both so similar.

I would really like to see a picture of Iruka/Ivara built at that time, 25.98 m long, and with cats seems to be the little ship i am looking for and can't get out of my mind!

The similar one you mentioned with the link is REALLY interesting it has my attention, but still partial to the extra 10 feet of boat that I am looking for.

Thanks for commenting ...... hummmm

Yes, I remember now. I was told progression was originally launched as Bamboo. I think you are on to something here does the picture of the boat I posted look like Alessandra Serena?

Thanks for commenting!

Thanks I just ordered the book I am sure I will enjoy it.

Thanks for commenting

Yes she is beautiful a little big for me.
Every 10 feet under 100 means a lot for me.
Thanks for the reply I think we have the same taste

Oh that's great. So you think the boat I am looking for was at one time named the Henry K.
That's good information where was she when you were on her and any information or things you remember would be great. Did you like her layout below and was I right that she had cats for power and stainless steel cap rails? Do you remember how long she was? It was quite a while ago when I got the listing specs. from a broker so I am still trying to sort things out.

She probably was built in 93 that would explain the more rake and modern profile.

Thanks, I would appreciate any pictures of both boats to help my understanding of things.


Thanks again
