A Tour of Sailing Vessel Tess Bess (Spindrift 43) | DrakeParagon Sailing

The Spindrift 43 is formidable, cutter rigged, blue water sailboat designed by marine architect Ron Amy. Davie and Gill have made their Spindrift 43 into a beautiful and comfortable home. Join us as they take us on a tour of this magnificent boat and show us the coolest trick on how to get out of a tight spot. It blew our minds and is something we'll have to try!

Drake your boat tours are so good. One of them changed my life.

That midship cleat assisted turn as they left the slip was one of the most smoothly executed boat handling maneuvers I've seen. Thanks for filming it. What a gorgeous, go-anywhere boat! -Ben

Tess Bess is beautiful and practical below. I loved all the attention paid to improvements that increased livability. You had me at the heated tubes to stop condensation in the clothing lockers! Warm and dry towels! How exciting! I was also impressed with how they pivoted the boat to leave the dock.

There is no boat tour like a Drake Boat tour. I just love it! And what a wonderful boat and owners! I have a Dickinson diesel heater too, with the same tank setup, but mine has a push button valve on the looking glass you have to push to take a reading. I learned that the hard way when I ran out of diesel unexpected :-) This setup prevents the tank from draining when the glass breaks.

Okay This is a 1st! I grew up with a Father and Mother that sailed. My father a contractor and my mother, a seamstress. Me I became an Artist that would love to sail. A youtube video that related to my ingrained life. The tour of Tess was wonderful. I can not explain how I enjoyed myself. Thank you!

Lucky bastard.
Oposite of my life.
My parents hated ships, Water and sailing. " stupide lazy people"
As a child it was imposible.

[@dennishively5994]

Great tour of a awesome sailboat

[@rob_h]

Beautiful boat and their disembarking from the dock was a very impressive display of lines to pivot/spring the boat.

[@johnhopkins6731]

Wow what a turn! Amazing!

[@captnb8036]

Very nice episode. You guys are really making it hard for some of us to keep our 9-5.

[@mikestone234]

I have the center cockpit version, love it!

[@jornantrillsark1437]

Great video! Thanks 😊👍
Beautiful ending 😊

[@drcornelius8275]

Very nice boat and thank you for the tour! I wonder if they notice increased hobby-horsing effect from that weight hanging off the rear?

[@SailingSarah]

My 1985 Spindrift 43 is laid out differently with the galley opposite the salon and a double berth where their galley is.
