Cynthia

Classic Cutter

Cynthia was designed and built by Thomas Jackett of Falmouth in 1910 as a gaff cutter for a Mr. C.P.Foster.

She remained in the West Country until 1927 when she was sold on to Cowes.

Soon after, the rig was changed to a Bermudan Sloop as she raced under RORC, in the Channel, quite successfully for many years.

She was owned by one family until 2012 when she was sold and towed back from Cowes to Dartmouth.

Here, a full refit was undertaken by Peter Lucas and the rig changed back to the original one of a gaff cutter.
