1910 Classic Gentleman’s Commuter yacht

Built in 1910, this 31-foot steel-hulled commuter yacht represents a rare example of early 20th-century yacht design. The boat features a steel hull with teak and mahogany salon appointments, original stained glass doors, and open-air seating areas forward and aft. A single Yanmar KM2P-1 diesel engine of 21 horsepower provides a cruising speed of 6 knots, supported by a bow thruster for maneuvering.

Recent mechanical work includes a new engine, transmission, and control panel installation. The boat carries updated electronics comprising a chartplotter and depth sounder, and the bottom was repainted in November 2022. An electric marine head serves the single head compartment. These additions blend modern utility with the yacht's classical character without compromising its original design intent.

The accommodations and full layout details remain as originally conceived for this commuter-style yacht, designed for shorter passages and day cruising rather than extended voyages. The open spaces and salon arrangement prioritize the social and leisure aspects typical of gentleman's commuter service from the Edwardian era.
