Pert

In Festival Boats 2023

Pert was built over many years by the Fish Brothers, initially in Yakima, finished on Marrowstone Island and launched in 2007. She was sailed for five Summers, put away during the Winter, and then laid up for eight years in the builders large shop. We purchased her in 2020 during the height of Covid, and have been enjoying her immensely.

She is a full keel design with a cut away forefoot and gaff rigged with a main, hanked on staysail and a flying jib run out on a permanent bowsprit. Her sails are small, easy to hoist, and the sheet loads are not heavy making her a joy to sail.
