COMMENTS: “HOPE” is one of four Gannon & Benjamin Yawls, adapted by Nat Benjamin from the famous Rozinante by L.F. Herreshoff. The Tern Class incorporates 18” greater beam, firmer bilges, greater displacement and sail area, resulting in a stiffer boat with greater initial stability plus a significantly larger cockpit and interior. “HOPE” has been used mainly for day sailing, but sister-ships have cruised the New England coast. This is a fine example of the yachts built by the renown Gannon and Benjamin Yard.

“HOPE”  has recently had the exterior brightwork sanded and professionally varnished,  topsides  freshly painted and the bottom heavily sanded and recoated with Pacifica antifouling paint. She is a beautiful classic in great shape and ready to launch.
