About
MOLITA - now MARIGAN was designed as a fast cruiser and her undoubted appeal inspired her current owner to rescue her. In so doing he has not just breathed new life into her. Every aspect is impressive - his aim to sail the Classic Circuit with family and friends on a boat without weakness in her structure which includes a solid teak deck.MARIGAN is therefore no delicate 120 year old museum piece but a true vintage yacht to be sailed hard as originally intended.Having bought and rescued her the decision was taken to have her rebuilt with the aim she last another 100 years - and certainly even stronger than originally. Having now been fully restored and reconverted to her original gaff rig; she is in splendid condition. Launched under her new name MARIGAN – in honor of her present owner’s four daughters Morgan, Marine, Ocean and Logan in 2006, she has already won the Spanish championship for vintage yachts in both 2009 and 2010.
A key feature of this vessel is her strength.To achieve this the chain plates have been redesigned in stainless steel to distribute the load of the rig to the entire hull and keel. Each chain plate is reinforced in a ring frame by an individual beam, knee and laminated iroko frame and then the plates extend in one piece to the mast foot. The conventionally laid teak deck is supported by beams, knees, covering board beam shelves and king plank. Originally pitch pine; top 5 of teak planking on oak frames and teak deck. On restoration:Pitch pine and Oregon pine planking hull all copper fastenedLaminated iroko main framesSteamed American oak intermediate framesOregon pine beam shelfLaminated iroko deck beamsTeak deck plankingTeak covering boardLaminated iroko horizontal and vertical kneesElm and bronze fastened lead keelLaminated iroko stem and stern; bronze through bolted

This boat was not just restored to her original beauty. Which is doubtless the case here. But more than that during the restoration she was taken to the next level when it came to re-design all load taking elements. Hereto please read carefully the part “Construcction”. As the bronze fittings were either missing or defective, they had almost all to be renewed. Not from the shelf, but forms were made and all was specially cast, so that all fittings have the same grade bronze, the same age and looks, the same quality, and finally they do all match the owners expectations when it comes to safety.If you really do look for a proven winner that was restored with extraordinary care,MARIGAN certainly fits the bill.
