Can anyone identify this sailboat?

[Strolls]

I'm not sure if this should go in here or in the classics forum:

Clyde Marina was mentioned in another thread, and looking at their website I spotted this in their 2015 yearbook.

She reminds me of some Laurent Giles yachts I've seen, which is what piqued my interest.

She looks like a Buchanan design to me.

Nice boat whatever it is.

agree with you.
I thought only the seppos had sailboats

Rob't Clark at a guess.

Could well be. When I saw the photo I thought she could do with losing the fence and push/pulpits.
Like this Robert Clark 40 footer..

She looks like an "Alfred Mylne"

This is "Errant" a Mylne boat

And here's some more info on him https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Mylne

The Clyde had a number of builders of very beautiful saily boats, Mylne, Mcgruers and Fife's

The Mylne and Clark designs are a bit finer lined; having spent a lot of time alongside and lusting after the Buchanan designed ' Tuppitoo ' she looks very much like his work, a little bit chunkier and dare I say more useful as a cruiser.

Kim Holman?

Could be.

There is a wonderful book, ' The Proper Yacht ' by Arthur Beiser, with descriptions, photo's and illustrations of the work of all these great designers; wish I had a copy but as I recall it costs a fortune.

You may be pleased to learn there are some secondhand copies on Amazon at the moment for £7 delivered.

Strolls,

thanks very much; it has been on the back burner of my wish lists since a boy, I'll be all over Amazon in a few seconds !

Ta,

She's "Bosun" a Robert Clarke design, built by Berthons in 1962. I believe owned by Bosunof of this parish.
