PURITAN
JOHN G. ALDEN 103 FT GAFF SCHOONER 1931/2015

Description
PURITAN is quite simply a legend. She beautifully carries before her the spirit of America’s ‘Gilded Age’, was one of the earliest participants in the ‘Classic Yacht Revival’, and has continued evangelistically to spread the word for over four decades, with alumni becoming key players; disciples even. Built from the highest grade of steel then available by a shipyard set up to build submarines for the US Navy - and infused with the DNA of some of the finest American schooners - the care that went into PURITAN’s design and build, her ease of sailing and motion, and her spacious yet intimate accommodations have always guaranteed lovers, even when her chips were seriously down in the late 1960s. Mediterranean-based for most of the past 30 years, PURITAN has been enjoyed since 2015 in current ownership as a successful MCA coded charter yacht and summertime family cruiser - with her centreboard-up draft allowing access to anchorages and harbours other yachts of her size can't reach.
