History

Built in 1898, Pen Duick was a stunning regatta cutter, renowned for her elegance and craftsmanship. Designed by the famous naval architect William Fife, she was one of the most beautiful sailing yachts of her time. Pen Duick gained a significant place in maritime history not only due to her graceful design but also because of the exceptional sailors who later became associated with her. In the 1960s, the legendary French sailor Eric Tabarly discovered Pen Duick, abandoned and stranded after running aground on the muddy flats of the Loire River. Seeing the potential in the boat, Tabarly, along with a crew of sailors, rescued and meticulously restored the vessel. His efforts breathed new life into Pen Duick, and she went on to achieve success in various regattas, earning a special place in the hearts of sailing enthusiasts. Tragically, in 1998, the same year that Pen Duick celebrated her 100th anniversary, Eric Tabarly was lost at sea. He and his crew were caught in a fierce storm off the southeast coast of Wales, and the yacht capsized, claiming his life. Despite the heartbreaking loss of her revered sailor, Pen Duick remains a symbol of maritime heritage and the passion of those who dedicated their lives to the sea. Today, she is remembered as one of the greatest sailing vessels in history.
