Overview
About this vessel
"Hermoine of the Derwent" is a classic North Sea 31 strip planked Huon Pine sloop. She was built in 1973 by respected local boat builder Geoff Cuthberston as a cruising and racing vessel designed to accommodate a family.
She has spent many years fulfilling both roles, notably having a successful racing career for 20 years out of Kettering.
She carries 300L of diesel and 400L of water, along with four 6ft plus berths, making her the perfect cruising vessel.
In recent years (2021-22) extensive work was done to conserve her heritage.
Offered at $39,950, Hermoine represents an outstanding opportunity to own a professionally designed and built piece of Tasmanian maritime history. She is strong, capable, and well-finished at a reasonable price point.
Below the deck, the accommodations are well laid out with excellent use of space. The huon pine cabinetry is to a high standard. There are two berths (port and starboard) in the main cabin. The small galley is to port with the navigation station opposite. The dinette (amidships) has comfortable settees (seating for 4) on either side of the dining table. The settees can double as berths. Forward of the bulkhead is the bathroom, which includes a marine toilet. Opposite is a large icebox, and there is a double berth forward.
