42 ft Norman E Dallimore Sloop 1937 - Sold

This 42' sloop from the board of Norman Dallimore typifies her designer's work with her pretty sheer and graceful ends.

In 1937, using Camper & Nicholson carpenters, she was built at Husband & Sons yard at Marchwood, planked in Pensacola Pitch Pine on English Elm.

This yacht has enjoyed careful Dutch ownership over the last 15 years and is a very beautiful and useable classic family cruiser racer.

Entering below deck through the companionway there is a seat to port, situated in the doghouse, moving forward and down into the main accommodation there is a full size chart table to port and well equipped galley immediately adjacent on the starboard side. The galley is equipped with a 2 burner stove and oven, stainless steel sink with hot/cold pressurised water; there is also plenty of storage provided by lockers under the side decks. The main saloon has the original gimbaled saloon table and there are settee berths port and starboard. The interior joinery is a mixture of pine and teak and with painted white bulkheads and deckheads the boat has lost none of its 1930s charm. There are opening ports down the trunk cabin sides.

Moving forward there is a WC/heads compartment and wash basin to port and hanging locker to starboard. The forward cabin has a double berth to port and a single to starboard. Forward of this area is another shorter berth currently used for children but could be used for sail storage.
