2000 Herreshoff Classic Schooner

Eleonora is an exact replica of the schooner Westward. She was then arguably one of the most famous and best known racing schooners in the world. Eleonora not only follows Westward’s heritage of big schooner racing but also offers, with her comfort and space, an unforgettable cruising and relaxing experience.

Eleonora was built at the Van der Graaf shipyard in Holland and was launched in March 2000. Since then, she has successfully participated in a number of classic sailing regattas and hosted on board a number of high profile guests during her charter activities. Eleonora shows astonishing beauty under sail, her slender hull cutting a pathway through the sea in an elegant combination of beauty and power. Over one hundred years after the launch of Westward, we are again able to appreciate the awesome majesty and grandeur of this superb classic sailing yacht underway, sails filled as she surges forward, her white wake streaming behind. With no sacrifice to luxurious standards of comfort, her staterooms and the entire interior display the ambience and elegance of another age.
