Some yachts hold such storied history in their timbers that they should be national monuments; there is no doubt that ZAIDA III should.
Here is a rare opportunity to acquire and restore a thoroughly authentic living embodiment of American maritime history: in design (by John G Alden, Boston); in build (by one of the best, Henry B. Nevins, New
York, for his City Island neighbour in business (sailmaker extraordinaire George E Ratsey, New York via Gosport, England); and in defending freedom at war (ZAIDA III’s war story below is epic). And, of course, she’s a very pretty and practical yacht with undoubted performance.
ZAIDA III has reached the project stage in life although still in sailing condition; one could easily become besotted. Brokers Comments Some yachts hold such storied history in their timbers that they should be national monuments; there is no doubt that ZAIDA III should. Here is a rare opportunity to acquire and restore a thoroughly authentic living embodiment of American maritime history: in design (by John G Alden,
Boston); in build (by one of the best, Henry B. Nevins, New York, for his City Island neighbour in business (sailmaker extraordinaire George E Ratsey, New York via Gosport, England); and in defending freedom at war (ZAIDA III’s war story below is epic).
And, of course, she’s a very pretty and practical yacht with undoubted performance. ZAIDA III has reached the project stage in life although still in sailing condition; one could easily become besotted. New Listing This is a preliminary presentation of a New Listing with fuller specifications to follow. History Impeccable provenance in design, build and ownership would always have guaranteed ZAIDA III a special place in American yachting
history, but it was her Second World War activities while on anti-submarine patrol on the US east coast that really made her a legend in her own lifetime.
ZAIDA III was John G Alden’s second design for Gosport, England-born, City Island, New York-based George E Ratsey of Ratsey & Lapthorn sailmakers. Her predecessor, ZAIDA II, was a 52ft stock schooner design commissioned in 1930 as a family cruiser/ racer-come-test-bed (presumably), and Newport, Rhode Island floating office – necessitated by the amount of time the City Island sailmaker was spending there to service the loft’s growing J-Class America’s Cup workload. ZAIDA III seems to have had broadly similar function whilst drawing out the ends on a similar underbody, and rigged as a cutter.
For both boats there was a simple layout of two spacious and beautifully appointed cabins separated by a heavy curtain, so that two separate business meetings could take place at the same time. George Ratsey’s son, Colin, is quoted in Dr William Collier’s history of the famous sailmaking dynasty recounting ZAIDA II’s first day in such service: “One group was sent forward and the curtain was pulled, and the other group went aft. The result was. some stupendous orders had been placed, all in secrecy, so the boat almost paid for itself that day.
”But it wasn’t all about work; at play Ratsey had a reputation for getting the best out of his yachts. The cutter sail plan ZAIDA III first sailed under, seen in the blueprint here drawn by long time Alden associate William Mc Nary, shows the quadrilateral jib pioneered and made famous on the J-Class boats of the 1930s, but not common at all on cruisers. In her first season, ZAIDA III's racing competitors included the notable Sparkman & Stephens-designed yawl EDLU. ZAIDA III was later re-rigged, spending much of her life as a yawl. After the USA entered the Second World War, the Nazi U-Boat threat to Allied supply and troop ships on the eastern seaboard multiplied.
When the US government enlisted yachts over 50ft/15m as civilian-crewed Coast Guard Reserve observation and patrol vessels, George Ratsey quickly made ZAIDA III available; the number CGR 3070 was applied to her black topsides and she was re-rigged as a yawl. It was as CGR 3070 that ZAIDA III became more widely famous while on patrol in December 1942. Blasted for three weeks by hurricanes and blizzards, and posted missing, she became the object of one of the greatest searches in maritime history before being finally located off the coast of North Carolina, about 1000 miles south of her original station, Nantucket Shoals.
She was finally rescued and towed into Ocracoke, Hatteras on Christmas Eve 1942. George Ratsey died at home aged 67 on Christmas Day. Post-war, ZAIDA III had her cutter rig restored. In present ownership since 1978, she remains in service as a much loved family cruiser, sailing the waters she once patrolled in less peaceful times.

EASILY TRANSPORTABLE 2010 MACGREGOR 26M MOTOR-SAILING SLOOP!
The Mac Gregor 26M is a dagger-board equipped fractional sloop motorsailer for those who wish to have the ability to outrun a change in the weather or return to port quickly after a leisurely day under sail. Thanks to the detachable, hinged mast with a system for single-handed raising,
lowering and securing for transport, the lack of a fixed deep keel, tilt engine and rudders, the boat can be trailered on conventional bunk or roll-on trailer. Under sail, the boat can make 7 MPH and under power the 60 HP Evinrude E-TEC outboard will enable the boat to plane at over 20 MPH, and with 24 gallons of fuel, it will do that for quite a distance.
At the pedestal wheel helm is the throttle / shift for the engine, keyed ignition, a remote for the VHF transceiver, Garmin GPS mapper and autopilot. Down below are for and aft berths, a head with porta-potty, a dinette, sink and storage compartments, enough to sleep and provision at least four. The Mac Gregor 26 is a very popular boat,
first introduced in 1986, with five thousand being produced in various variations since, this model, the 26M, was produced from 2002 until 2013. We are looking for people all over the country who share our love for boats.
