Romance

[Eddie Parks]

Hi
I am wondering if anybody has seen or heard of the John Bain, Silver built, 54ft yacht Romance. She used to belong to my family but was sold in the Mediterranean in the early 1970s.

Welcome to the Forum Eddie.

Romance is mentioned in my 1975 issue of Lloyds Register of Yachts - she was owned then by a Mrs N Moussouros (no address known), and she was registered in Guernsey.
The particulars that are mentioned are :
Built at Rosneath in 1928
LOA 54'
Beam 13'3",
Draft 5'7",
Depth 8'2",
Gross tonnage 36
Sail area 360 sq ft - she still had a suit of Williams sails made in 1961
And she had two Perkins 6 cylinder diesels each 43 / 65 hp built in 1965 (I am not too sure what they mean by 43 / 65).
