Coridon came into the hands of the current owner through Tradewind brokerage. Previous first owner Brian Cole had her built out of teak in Hong-Kong in 1963 after a 1930’s design by Alan Buchanan and Maurice Griffiths. She is a sturdy and very seaworthy sailing yacht with a 6 ton displacement. Currently she is being brought back to her original configuration that includes a gaff rig.
