Mermaid
26’ Derwent Class 1944
Full restoration of the 1944 Derwent Class yacht “Mermaid”, sail number D11. After spending a number of years in Melbourne and Sydney, where she sustained considerable damage to her planking owing to her mast jumping out of its step, Mermaid was returned to Kettering by her current owners for a full restoration.
Mermaid returned to the Derwent Class Fleet at then 2025 World Championships at the Australian Wooden Boat Festival.
