Orianda was built in 1937 at the Carl Andersen shipyard in Faaborg, Demark. She was designed by Oskar W. Dahlstrom and is an 26 metres staysail schooner. Constructed with a wooden hull.<\/p>\n
Orianda was commissioned in the waning days of a bygone era, when elegance was an integral part of the supreme adventure under sail. Her history could easily be taken from a novel where Royals, military seizures, naval academies, and rock stars were all part of the plot. She has changed names four times, enduring WWII as well as surviving a fire. Many interesting characters have owned her, from a Greek ambassador to a songwriter receiving a rare Golden Record for the song he wrote on-board.<\/p>\n
She has sailed across many oceans, ranging from the North seas, in Denmark and Sweden, to the Atlantic where she lived in the Caribbean for 20 years, to the Mediterranean.<\/p>\n
Orianda is a regular participant on classic regattas, one being in the 1990\u2019s at Nioulargue and is now a regular feature at the Voiles de St Tropez.<\/p>\n
Her fascinating history contributes to the aura of mystery and charm, ultimately enhancing her beauty and appeal.<\/p>\n
Orianda can accommodate up to 8 guests, in 4 cabins; 2 double cabins each with an en-suite head and 2 twin cabins with a shared head.<\/p>\n
She is staffed with 3 crew members. Orianda offers all the comforts of a private yacht alongside all the modern safety devices and equipment available on modern vessels.
\nShe has under gone extensive refurbishment under her new owner.\u00a0 In 2022\/23 Orianda was fitted with 2 new masts and a complete suite of new sails and is now in superb condition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13455,"template":"","yacht-group":[117,116],"class_list":["post-26628","yacht","type-yacht","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","yacht-group-sailing-yachts-charter","yacht-group-yacht-charter"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
