Bermuden Canoe Stern Ketch

REDUCED 'Solace' is a beautiful 36ft, carvel-planked, canoe stern, Bermudan ketch designed by Captain W. D. Bailey. It was professionally built by 'R. T. Searles and Sons' in Birkenhead SA for Dr. Joseph Stanley Verco. The boat was launched in 1939 and purchased by the current owners over 30 years ago.
Since then, this beautifully crafted boat has cruised extensively, and has been lovingly cared for. Solace has an incredible record. The current owners successfully circumnavigated Australia, spending an extended period in the Kimberley. During the circumnavigation, Solace performed beautifully and handled many challenging and varied conditions extremely comfortably. She has also sailed to and participated in numerous wooden boat festivals in Tasmania.
Many of the crew, who have loved, sailed and looked after her, are available and are very knowledgeable about the workings and history of Solace. She is in immaculate condition, inside and out. She is clean, has dry bilges, and has covers to protect the brightwork. She presents very well.
Her many voyages have proved her seaworthiness and reliability. This stunning yacht is ready and waiting for her next adventure!
