BROKER’S COMMENTS This 60'(18.3m) Mylne designed International 12 Metre was launched in 2006 - she has the lines and sail plan of her 1909 sister-ship JAVOTTE, but a modern construction plan engineered by Ian Nicolson with the approval of the 12 Metre Class. The result would surely please Mr Mylne; KATE certainly has all the instant magic of a 12 Metre, however, what cannot go un-noticed, is that with all her beautifully crafted bronze hardware and other stunning detail, it is the power of this yacht together with her simplicity that wins through...it takes an incredible amount of thought, planning and understanding to get simplicity right! HISTORY KATE was designed in 1908 by Alfred Mylne, but built by Philip Walwyn and his small team of wood workers in St Kitts; taking 4 years over 18,000 man hours. KATE is modelled on JAVOTTE, the successful Mylne 12 Metre, built in 1908 and destroyed in a yard fire in Sweden in 1964 – KATE is the only new 12 Metre launched in the last 20 years. Copies of Mylne’s drawings and calculations were used – displacement is as designed, as is ballast ratio and rig. Walwyn’s goal was a beautiful and long lasting structure, construction was engineered by Ian Nicholson with plan approval from the Twelve Metre Class and is wood, epoxy, bronze fastened throughout and glass sheathed using 2 layers of 300gsm biaxial. Epoxy, additives and glass cloth are from SP Systems and coatings are by Awlgrip
