Wooden Ships Comments on this James Silver Ormidale Class Motor Yacht
Ormidale Class motor yacht designed by John Bain and built by James A. Silver Ltd, Rosneath in 1964.
The Ormidale was one of the flagship classes for the Silvers yard, a great size of yacht that offered numerous sleeping cabins, good deck space, good cruising range and sea keeping yet in a manageable sized yacht. These are well proportioned, practical and elegant looking yachts.
Although she had some significant work under a previous owner in Scotland, the boat has been laid up afloat for a few years and is now considered a project.
Around 2016/2017 the vessel was surveyed and problems identified. A professional yard carried out repairs including a new transom, some planking replacement and a new top to the stem. In 2017 the boat was surveyed again and a copy of this report is available showing the condition of the vessel at that point.
The current owner will commission the engines and can move her to a nearby location, possibly Ramsgate, in order for a buyer to have an out of water survey carried out should they so wish.
