“LIFE AQUATIC”


John Bain/James A. Silver 72ft TSMY 1952/


Following a Classic Boat magazine Restoration of the Year-winning keel-up restoration 2015-16 at the yard of Stirling and Son, Plymouth, with interiors furnished and


decorated in immaculate taste to designs by Paris-based India Mahdavi, LIFE AQUATIC is now a superior boat both structurally and cosmetically to the one Silvers


launched in 1952 as THELMA VI. At 72 feet, she is to the longest model of James A Silver naval architect and managing director John Bain’s renowned Ormidale


design series, and has long proved herself as an exceptional sea-boat, including charter work as a steady platform for event filming and viewing with her trusty Gardner


diesel engines and Vosper Maxi Fin stabilizers. Now with 3 double cabins, a single, and crew accommodation, LIFE AQUATIC is an incredibly exciting and unique


option in turn key condition.

“CARAMBA”


Fred Parker 63ft TSMY 1963


CARAMBA’s supreme good looks are not accidental – the sheer line, beautifully balanced proportions and purposeful profile are all in immaculate good taste. When you


add to this her ease of use......We first met her as a family yacht in Corfu, professionally skippered and run by two people. Her current owner by contrast looks after the


boat himself and often cruises her alone. With or without a crew, her versatility is therefore impressive. With her wide and protected bulwarks, expansive aft deck, her little


ship ambience with commanding bridge, charming saloon and intimate cabin layout, she is living testament to her designer’s skill. Fred Parker of course was one of that


generation of designers to have served his apprenticeship before the 2nd World War. It raises the question. “Why don’t they make them like this anymore?”
