Freya

I don't know anything about Freya other than she's at the top of the creek at what was dolphin quay in Emsworth, looks to be in need of some TLC but for sure is a lovely looking classic.


If you look closely the mast is broken, or at least there are scarfs either failed or new ones prepared for replacement wood.


The cabin sides are interesting made up from short planks, but the portholes and other fittings speak of quality construction.


Don't you just love those windows onto the cockpit, whether that's a view to the chart table, galley or just as area for the off watch to shelter it's a lovely feature.

  1. Interesting. Looks like a racing design redone for cruising. Eccentric. Maybe the mast was intended to be shortened.
