Description

Joseph Soper is probably best remembered for the 'Big Class' cutter SATANITA, legendary for her speed, and “a fair turn of speed” is one of the properties noted by the yachting press of 1929 for this creation by Philip & Son of Dartmouth from another of his designs. ZEPHYR was moreover conceived as an able seagoing cruiser, and at 62 feet (20m) on deck she’s the perfect size for a family yacht of this vintage. In impressive condition and a considerable beauty, her forte is nevertheless in the sheer practicality of her layout, rig and accommodation, to which ownership by the same family for almost 50 years is testament enough. In 2019 ZEPHYR relaunched at a youthful 90-years-old after a major centreline restoration, and sporting a new mast.
