Kim Holman Landfall Class Ketch 'LANDFALL'

More detail on this classic sailing yacht for sale: woodenships.co...
Kim Holman Landfall ketch built by Whisstocks Boatyard Ltd, Suffolk, UK in 1958.
She was the first yacht of 6 built to this Kim Holman design and gave her name to the class. Built for Claude Whisstock, the owner of the boat yard, she was therefore the ‘boss’s boat’ and would have been built with a little extra care and attention. Owned by Whisstock for 25 years, she then had another long ownership before being given a major refit between 1998 and 2004.
Bought by the previous owners in 2006 and sailed to Devon where she was modified and prepared for long distance cruising and live aboard sailing. After cruising the West country in 2007, the then owners departed in 2008 for a 15 year cruise, arriving back in the UK in 2023. Their cruise took them south to the Cape Verdes, across the Atlantic to Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina before travelling north through the western Caribbean, into Cuba, USA and Canada before heading home via the Bahamas, Bermuda and the Azores. The voyage covered 29,000Nm with over 400 anchorages and moorings.
The boat has behaved impeccably throughout that period and has never gave any cause for concern. She was a comfortable and safe cruising home, easily handled by her 2 crew in all conditions and much admired wherever she went.
Sold in February 2024 to the current owner, refit work weas carried out to remedy issues highlighted in the 2023 survey and the boat sailed to her new home in Dorset. Unexpectedly back on the market after only one season due to personal circumstances of the owner, this is a great opportunity for someone to acquire a spacious, capable and comfortable cruising yacht with great pedigree and provenance.
Full survey report available from November 2023 along with a list of actions taken since to satisfy the insurance company.

What a great ketch.
Though I had to cross reference with an old Sandeman listing of a sister ship to find her stats as your link is giving a 404 error.
