Overview
Puritan is one of the most original and carefully restored great sailing
yachts of the past. She is also a true blue water cruiser thanks to her
extremely strong and reliable construction, and her original design, a
testament to Alden’s genius. Her shape and her look fulfil and gratify
any classic yacht lover’s desire of beauty and harmony and John Alden’s
powerful lines are a statement of seaworthiness. The elegance and charm
of her interior and the warm atmosphere
enhanced by the light Oregon pine finish makes any guest feel at ease
and welcome, uncluttered by unnecessary additions or frills. One of the
great yachts of all time is now for sale, needing some attention to her
systems, sails and technical aspects, but certainly worth the
investment.
