Description

Jack Laurent Giles developed a special niche through the 1950s and 1960s in the design of great-looking performance motor-sailers that utilised the maximum internal space from a yacht’s hull without loss of sailing ability. His 43 ft Donella Class proved one of the most popular types: at least 16 were launched, with the 8th Donella, MICIA, built of teak to a very high standard by Moody’s of Swanwick Shore on the River Hamble for an Italian nobleman. Mid-1990s restoration and a subsequent stringent maintenance regime and major 2020 refit in the still current ownership of a Venice boatyard and marina owner has ensured that MICIA has been kept to the manner born: wonderfully in period, yet no anachronism. And that Venice marina berth might be available too.
