Inchcape 45 Halcyon of Eyemouth - Classic Motor Sailing Boat For Sale

Looking for a classic boat? Inchcape is a beautiful motor sailer that's perfect for anyone looking to get into sailing. With its spacious deck and comfortable cabin, this boat is perfect for cruising along the coast or spending lazy days on the water. This video gives a tour of the Inchcape 45 Halcyon of Eyemouth that has had a thorough refit in the last 4 years.
The Inchcape range of motor sailer designs were the result of a collaboration between Jack Francis Jones and James Evans of Eyemouth Boatbuilding Company who built the Inchcapes at their yard in Berwickshire.
His designs were inspired by the Scottish fishing boats which were built to be strong, powerful and seaworthy vessels capable of working in the North Sea and North Atlantic all year round, Evans wanted to replicate these virtues in a pleasure yacht so that owners had the comfort of a yacht with the strength and peace of mind of a fishing boat. They achieved this blend and came up with a variety of sizes, the Inchcape 45 being one of the more popular of the range. Several were built over the years, but this is the very last example having gone down the slip in Eyemouth in 1990.
She was built for a Portuguese gentleman who cruised her around the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts of Spain and Portugal. She was then sold and spent 10 years cruising the Baltic Sea covering many miles. The next owner kept the boat in Falmouth and was a meticulous and careful owner, undertaking a thorough refit of the hull, rig and systems.
She was then sold to the present owner in 2016 who has put the boat through a no expense spared period of work, upgrading every aspect of the boat and bringing her up to the standards required for the MCA code of Practice Category 1.
This is a fully equipped and absolutely ready to go cruising yacht with a huge internal volume allowing her owners to go anywhere in the world in style, safety and comfort. She is the ideal boat for live aboard cruising, something many people are now able to consider with the ability to work remotely, having a yacht like this as their base and cruising gently from port to port.
She has better sailing capabilities than one might expect, in anything more than 12 knots of breeze she will move without help from the engine. At 20 knots plus she will be flying along with a very comfortable motion.

I was absolutly delighted to stumble upon this video of my father´´s previous (and last) yacht which he and 4 of us bros, along with our english friend admiral Otto Steiner brought to Portugal through the Caledonian Canal !! The magnificent restoration and updating does justice to this wonderful little ship (called Halcyon lll when first baptised !). I have many photos to document our adventurous passage ,as well as of the many happy miles of our cruises with family and friends ,which I would love to share with you !! Best whishes for your cruises !!

[@RichardGregsonWoodenShips]

That is really interesting. Perhaps you would like to be in touch with the current owners of Halcyon?

[@marcuswilliams812]

Fanatic to find another Inchcape owner or so previous owner to one. I own no 138 Zowi. She is under going a large refit of framing and hull planking. Would be delighted to exchange pictures, stories. Let me know how to contact you further. Marcus!

Having the last name Reed makes me want this boat even more!

[@normanmerrill1241]

My kind of boat…beautiful and solid. Perfect for live aboard…thanks

[@rockets4kids]

Looks like she sold quickly. I'm not surprised.

[@normanmerrill1241]

I love this boat…everything about it…just like a couple of port lights to open…thanks

[@miketee2444]

This is one classy and yet Hard Core cruising Machine. Much like a Sea Horse or Diesel Duck but I think I like this more so.

[@tedthesailor172]

That is the very best sorted Inchcape by a mile..! It looked far roomier down below than its 45ft would suggest...

[@user-rl9dz1kz2r]

Beautiful boat, the definition of elegant, everything that needs to be there, nothing that doesn't. Not luxurious, but not too workmanlike, either. Just right, the Goldilocks vessel

[@frankcherry3810]

That is one clean boat

[@wildcolonialman]

Fabulous.

[@johnbecay6887]

i'm in love...

[@nielskjr5432]

Beautiful ship! Gaff rigging, was it?

[@jadams3427]

Gorgeous vessel !

[@frankcherry3810]

This would be a beautiful costal cruiser. Rather small generator

[@bernardgr2054]

bonjour , le bateau est il toujours à vendre...? si oui ... à quel prix...? merci pace e salute B M in CORSICA

[@RHP9898]

What does 'good' headroom mean? Why not simply state what it is so we tall guys can judge whether it's good or not?

[@seanogallchoir3237]

What is the price? Thank you

[@RichardGregsonWoodenShips]

Asking £210,000 GBP
