North Sea 31 Huon Pine Sloop "HERMOINE of the Derwent"
"Hermoine of the Derwent" is a North Sea 25 Sloop, classic design, strip planked Huon Pine yacht. Hermione was built in 1973 by respected local boat builder Geoff Cuthberston as a cruising and racing vessel to accommodate a family.
She has spent many years fulfilling both roles, notably having a successful racing career for 20 years out of Kettering.
Hermione has 300L of diesel and 400L of water, along with 4 6ft plus berths making her the perfect cruising vessel.
In recent years (2021-22) there was some extensive work done to conserve her heritage. These works included:
o She has been stripped to bare hull and professionally RE-epoxied and resprayed using high
quality wattyl marine products.
o New furler and Steve Walker sails in excellent condition, recently maintained/ repaired with
new sail bag - work completed by storm bay sails.
o Standing rigging attended to by RM marine (2022).
o Decks resealed with Wattyl products.
o Interior refinished.
o Maintenance to Perkins diesel engine.
o Re-wired & solar.
o New house and ignition batteries (2021-22).
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.
