Supposedly a Holland 25......I can't see it. Must be a one off 1/4 tonner someone designed and built.

yachthub.com/list/yachts-for-sale/used/sail-monohulls/holland-25/244055



Looking at the stern area more indicates it may well be a Davidson Black Fun quarter tonner. So potentially a better club racing boat than the Holland 25.


It is a Holland 1/4 ton (originally spectrum I think with bigger cabin) not the production Holland 25

Now even better buying! Massive price drop, people see the word timber and run. This is a seriously nice boat!

Bit too well known ... many have looked at it, heard the stories and walked away.

Beautiful boat but not suitable for cruising without a total refit.

It needs some work but is an exceptional value.

Broken mast, ideal time to shorten it down a bit.

It's not a cruising boat. It's the sort of boat you would ponce about Sydney Harbour in on a nice day.

There maybe a couple of Davidson 40's with the same name but I think this is the one. Might have a very deep draft! Might need 13 in the crew!

I'm fairly sure Silverado was always Silverado, and that it's another case of vendors over-selling. Canterbury Export was a fractional rig racer version.

Silverado is a seriously sweet boat, which could perform very well against the more stripped-out fractional Farr 40 one tonners despite being much cruisier. She really would be fantastic for someone.

Pandora, probably live up to it's name but a bargain for now. Hopefully someone with wheelbarrows of cash can restore this boat.

Not keen on the colour but an interesting project. Good value.

It's a lovely boat but if I was to drop $550,000 on a secondhand boat it probably would not be this one. I would probably gain a few new friends though that don't care where the money came from!

Just wondering if anyone knows what sort of sail boat is this on the davits??

I'm thinking of buying the mother ship & don't want to waste my money if the sail boat is no good!!

That boat is 50 years old,

I can't believe it. It surely is a classic.

Ok, this one is for Ramona who wasn't that fussed on the Najad, maybe this one is more to his liking as Rainbow just came onto the market and this one is going to cost you a bit more that $550,000 at 7,950,000 Euro but it is nice down below ...

No good - it would be a struggle to singlehand without a windvane, and there wouldn't be enough room on that transom to fit one.

Bugger, I knew there had to be a catch.

This my pick out of all the SS34's. This is Yemaya that Linda sailed out from San Francisco a bit over 12 months ago. Out of the same mold as Edward Heaths boat that won the Hobart race in '69. Much nicer than the Australian SS34's and a gift at the price. I have been threatening my wife about buying this one for 18 months or so!

Pretty sure I walked past that boat in Fort Lauderdale. My wife and I were swapping from one cruise ship to another. I took a photo back at the other side of the boat, the mast is visible though.

Pretty sure I checked her out in Rhode Island. There were several others there that appealed more!

I reckon my old Stingray mast would go well on that, it would hoot along fairly well I should think.
