A Short History of the ‘Envelope’

Just thought that it may be helpful to fill you in on some history of the Yawl class – it’s easy to forget how many years I’ve now been involved with the fleet but it must be in excess of 50! The crunch came in 1988 when 141 was built, to the design of Phil Morrison. His first design was rejected by Dave Gibbons as being too fine forward and he was worried that going on the foredeck to pick up a mooring the boat could capsize, so Phil produced a second ‘less radical design’ which is the 141 that we see today. As class measurer with many years experience of measuring other classes, my advice was sought in the winter of 1988, with a brief to sort the problem out and stop any even more radical Yawls being built.
