Boat Overview
Introducing the Patient Lady, a custom-built, 40-foot stay sail schooner inspired by Herreshoff and other classic vessels. This stunning vessel is a true labor of love, crafted over 25 years by an engineer passionate about sailing and design. Constructed from strip plank Spanish cedar, it combines aesthetic beauty with exceptional performance.
Every curve and line of the schooner reflects meticulous attention to detail. The smooth finish of 2 layers of Vectra cloth wrapped cedar enhances its visual appeal and durability against the elements. The wood's natural resistance to rot and decay makes it ideal for a seaworthy vessel, while its rich, warm tones create an inviting atmosphere on board.
The structural integrity of this schooner is unparalleled. Advanced techniques and extensive knowledge were applied to create a boat that is as resilient as it is beautiful. Reinforced joints and a carefully designed hull provide stability and safety, ensuring this vessel can handle various sailing conditions with grace and confidence.
Equipped with state-of-the-art sailing technology and innovative features, this schooner offers a blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern convenience. The spacious deck invites leisurely days at sea, while the thoughtfully designed old growth Teak interior provides comfort for long voyages.
Owning this sailing marvel is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity - a chance to possess not just a boat, but a piece of art forged through decades of dedication and skill. Whether navigating tranquil waters or embarking on adventurous voyages, this schooner promises unforgettable experiences and a connection to the timeless tradition of sailing.
The construction of the Patient Lady was an endeavor marked by countless hours of labor and unwavering determination. The engineer meticulously documented each phase of the build, from initial design sketches to final touches. Every detail was considered, from the spacious deck that invites relaxation to the intricately designed interior that offers comfort and style. The vessel is equipped with state-of-the-art navigation systems, yet it retains a classic charm that pays homage to maritime traditions.
The culmination of this 25-year dream transformed raw materials into a breathtaking work of art. The ship's name, Patient Lady, reflects the ethos of the project - patience in the pursuit of excellence and beauty. The engineer faced numerous challenges, from sourcing the finest materials to mastering intricate techniques. Yet, each obstacle was met with determination and an unwavering belief in his vision. The Patient Lady embodies the spirit of adventure and serves as a sanctuary for those who step aboard. It represents the dreams, aspirations, and relentless pursuit of excellence that define its creator. With sails unfurled and the wind at her back, the Patient Lady is poised to traverse open waters, carrying the legacy of her builder - a legacy defined by passion, perseverance, and an unyielding love for the sea.
