Leinster Boats has launched a new “Classic Collection” of heritage yachts, highlighting four distinctive vessels with strong offshore credentials.

Each yacht is currently in commission and maintained by experienced owners, according to Leinster Boats.

The collection includes the Frers 44, Van de Stadt 34, Sparkman & Stephens 55, and Robertson 35.

“These yachts offer classic sailing in vessels that stand out in any marina,” said Ronan Beirne, broker at Leinster Boats.

The Frers 44, priced at €85,000, is a spacious offshore cruiser designed by Germán Frers, known for its comfort and blue-water potential.

The Sparkman & Stephens 55, listed at €275,000, combines elegant lines with long-range cruising ability. It sleeps up to eight.

The Van de Stadt 34, on offer at €49,000, features a recent engine upgrade and is recognised for its balance and seakeeping.

Also at €49,000, the Robertson 35 is noted for its traditional design and sturdy construction, ideal for cruising.

“These boats are backed by clear provenance and provide pride of ownership,” Beirne added.

The Classic Collection is available to view at LeinsterBoats.ie

Beirne is a member of the Association of Brokers and Yacht Agents (ABYA) and operates on Ireland’s East Coast.
