"Eun Na Mara" (Bird of the Sea)
This classic yacht is ready to race anywhere in Australia, and is fully equipped with full sail wardrobe, electronics, radios, spare rudder, spare boom, etc
Designed by the internationally famous William Fife III to the then current 1905 design rules, she is a '36 linear rater', same as "Pen Duick IV"
Built at Berrys Bay, Sydney by Watty MacFalane and launched 16th February 1907, she initially was named "Aranui", then "Culwalla III" in 1910. Under the RPAYC Commodores' ownership (W. M. Marks) she successfully competed for the 'Sayonara Cup' in Melbourne, having previously raced from Sydney to Hobart, winning numerous trophies along the way.
Renamed "Eun Na Mara" around 1915, she has won trophies too numerous to name. Of note however were several 'Fremantle to Cape Leeuwin races in the 1960's and the famous Australian IRC win at Hamilton Island in 2001.
Current owner carried out extensive rebuilding works, including new bow bulkheads, new stern counter, bowsprit, new teak decking, and new cokpit in 2015.
The original design drawings by Fife at Fairlie, Scotland are also available, and show original design (1905-1907) and Bermudan redesign of rig (1931)
A professionally designed and installed electric engine was fitted in 2024 and uses 100 amp hour lithium battery.
A full marine survey was completed in July 2024 : as a result all thru-hull fittings were replaced.
She is located at South of Perth Yacht Club, and can be relocated anywhere in Australia. Although capable of being sailed to any East Coast port, trucking costs have been estimated around $20k
