New Boat Construction: Spirit of Bermuda
112-foot, three-masted schooner, launched August 2006
SPIRIT OF BERMUDA is an 112-foot, three-masted schooner based on an early to mid-19th century Bermudian vessel. Paintings depict these boats with low-slung freeboard, sharply raked masts and a bermuda rig. Built for the Bermuda Sloop Foundation, SPIRIT OF BERMUDA offers sail training opportunities to the youth of Bermuda.
The vessel utilizes modern wood composite construction (seven layers of wood and epoxy), carbon fiber spars, outside ballast, and up-to-date systems to ensure long life and to provide far higher levels of comfort and safety than the historic vessel would have had. However, her character and outward appearance harken strongly to the original. Langan Design Associates of Newport, Rhode Island created the design.
