Design 2149 Prospect of Whitby IV



This was the fourth (but not final) Prospect Of Whitby for Arthur Slater. This particular boat was designed and built for the 1973 Admiral's Cup. She was built of aluminum by the Huisman Shipyard of Holland and then shipped to Berthon in England for completion and fit out.

Here are the plans.

Two sisterships were built to this design, Battlecry and Struntje V. These were built for the very same Admiral's Cup and each had slight modifications.
