Petrina was designed by Alfred Westmacott and built in his yard at Woodnutts, St Helen's, Isle of Wight in 1937/38 as a day sailing boat with a lifting steel centre plate, which enables her to find her way into the shallowest waters and if needed take the ground on her sea legs.
LOA (including bowsprit) 24' 9" , beam 7' 6", draft 2' 6" (centre plate raised) displacement approx. 2 tonnes.
She completed a re-fit in 2018/19, works included:
- hull stripped back to the timbers & topsides re-splined
- installing a new lifting centre plate
- replacing the standing rigging
- fitting a new bowsprit
Petrina is an extremely solid and very steady and simple sailing vessel and well suited for family outings.
Full surveyor's report showing the full restoration is available.

Comes complete with tent-cover, cockpit cover and sail covers and the basic equipment for day sailing.
