PURITAN - YACHTSMAN EDITION
Puritan: The Portrait of an American Queen
Puritan: The Portrait of an American Queen is a definitive and meticulously researched tribute to one of the most significant American schooners ever built. Developed over decades of collected knowledge and two years of dedicated research by the TCYE team, this beautifully presented volume brings together the memories and experiences of those who know the vessel best—from sailors who served aboard her, to the craftsmen who built her, and the owners who preserved her legacy.
The book traces Puritan’s story from her earliest conception and construction through to her remarkable life at sea, charting her evolution into a symbol of the golden age of yachting. A vessel of historic importance, she earned distinction during the Second World War, surviving periods of conflict, hardship, and transformation, while maintaining her reputation as one of the finest schooners of her era.
More than a technical or historical record, this work captures the human story behind the yacht—reflecting the lives shaped by her presence and the enduring impact she has had on all who sailed her. From her launch in 1931 to the present day, Puritan remains as striking and elegant as ever, a true American classic preserved in both memory and maritime heritage.
A landmark publication for yacht enthusiasts, maritime historians, and admirers of classic design and seafaring tradition.
