FOR SALE – USA42 – OLIN STEPHENS 6-METRE RACING SLOOP

This Olin Stephens designed 6-metre racing sloop is for sale for the first time in 50 years. Built by Henry Nevins, Black Rose is a true classic. She boasts an impressive racing heritage with decades of winning performances. 

Black Rose is Sparkman & Stephens Design #5, the first 6-metre designed by Olin Stephens. Many more successful designs were to follow, but Black Rose began over 60 years of 6-metre development.

This vessel is one of 37 “sixes” that Sparkman & Stephens constructed over the years, and she was launched the year the firm incorporated.

Very shortly after she was built, Olin Stephens, along with his brother Rod, was at the helm of this very boat in the International Six Metre Championship in Bermuda.

Black Rose has been maintained to high standards by a particularly knowledgeable owner over the years and is well-known, specifically on Lake Champlain.

Price – US$50,000 firm
