‘Atlantic’ Schooner
The beautiful schooner ‘Atlantic’ was built in New York in 1903. In 1905 she set a transatlantic record of 12 days, 4 hours, and 1 minute. Unlike the big racing class yachts of the time ATLANTIC was the quintessential cruiser/racer. She had heating, refrigeration and water heaters. The lobby was finished in marble and the interior was fitted out with the finest mahogany paneling.
Despite all these refinements, her transatlantic record was not broken until 2005 (more than 100 years after she set the original Transatlantic record). She was a truly remarkable schooner.
Our ‘Atlantic’ replica is made from wood with plank by plank construction over her internal framing. Ropes and sails are already attached to the three masts so all the hard work has been done. The yacht comes with its own display stand. You should allow approximately 20 or 30 minutes to install the masts and connect the ropes to their fittings.
