Uncle Roy

Cruisers Uncle Roy

Every painting or sculpture starts out with a few simple lines on paper, canvas, wood or stone by their creators who then, through a lifetime of experience, raw talent and an embrace of the future, produce what everyone agrees to be a masterpiece. Such is the story of Uncle Roy.

When first acquired by her current owner this 1929, Stephens Brothers 34’ Trunk Cabin Cruiser was considered to be beyond repair but beneath the rotting wood and flaking paint he could see those few simple lines that would serve as the basis for the masterpiece that is Uncle Roy.

In 2017, what would become Uncle Roy was trucked to the Brooklin, Maine shop of boat builder Eric Dow where over the course of almost two years the boat was taken down to its bare bones, then pains-takingly restored to the highest standards of traditional wooden boat construction and brought into the future with thoughtful design improvements and state of the art equipment all while retaining the look and feel of a classic motor yacht that would be equally at home back in 1929 or into the future another lifetime from now.

For sale at a fraction of restoration costs Uncle Roy offers her next stewards a truly one-of-kind boat of classic aesthetic with  modern operational systems that will turn heads at very port of call. Call us to learn more and arrange a personal tour of this splendid vessel.
