Marine Art Giclée Print from an Original Oil Painting
Thendara is amongst one of the most beautifully preserved and conditioned
yachts of her size and period afloat on the seas today. In 1936, Sir Arthur
Young, one of Scotland's leading yachtsmen, asked Alfred Mylen to design a large
sea worthy racing cruiser. She was built by Clydeside yard of Alexander Stephen
and Sons, and is a gaff rigged ketch with topsails. Completed a year later
Thendara was one of the last cruising yachts to be constructed before World War
II. After the death of Sir Arthur Young in 1950 Thendara was sold and moved to
the Mediterranean and sadly neglected, like so many other old grand yachts. In
1991, the Southampton Yacht Services was commissioned by Mike Horseley of
Malcolm J. Horsley to carry out a full restoration.
