Ashley Butler Mayflower 50 Bermudian Cutter 2013

Ashley Butler’s designs are inspired by the ergonomics, form and function of the historic working craft and Victorian racing yachts of the British Isles. Even on the most basic consideration of size, this hull form has already proven ideal for family cruising – perhaps defining the term Modern Classic with her carvel planking, long keel and effortless charm. BONAVENTURE was commissioned by a family who knew what they wanted and the boat’s interior is comfortably fitted out to optimise space below for long periods afloat. More recently BONAVENTURE's rig has been optimsed in the hands of an experienced east coast of England traditional sailor to make her handy in tighter waterways. BONAVENTURE is a very well thought out and proven family cruiser-racer with striking looks.
