Iconic Racer Whitbread Maxi 81, ROTHMANS is for sale
February 22nd, 2022
Whitbread Maxi 81 ROTHMANS was originally a British maxi yacht, skippered by Lawrie Smith, designed and built for the Whitbread Round the World Race 1989-90. She originally sailed with a crew of up to 16 and finished the 1989-90 race in fourth place overall.
Built by Paragon Composites to a very high tech construction at the time, using variable density Divinycell, from H80 to H250, as you might imagine It’s a very complex laminate, with a hybridised laminate of carbon, Kevlar and E-glass. All was to ABS Plan Approval, and not surprisingly she was a high budget and well researched yacht.
Early signs were promising, but she could not hold back the ketch configuration of Steinlager and Fisher & Paykel, and duelled with her similarly rigged rival Merit until the end.
One of the most outstanding moments in the race, was in Leg 2, from Punta del Este, Uruguay, to Fremantle, Western Australia. Although Steinlager 2 won every leg of the 1989-90 race, the battle on this leg for second, just an hour and a half after Steinlager 2 had claimed line honours, was an intense one and the duel between ROTHMANS and MERIT was fierce. At the final moments of the race, ROTHMANS overtook Pierre Felhmann’s MERIT, to come in 28 seconds ahead.
Since the race, ROTHMANS continued to race for a while, causing controversy in the Sydney Hobart race by flying a spinnaker with cigarette advertising (out of sight of any other yachts though) and despite winning the race, she was disqualified.
ROTHMANS had a full refit in 2011. Her hull and topsides have been fully faired and painted and she has a new suit of sails. Since then she has been used in the competitive Legends race alongside the Volvo Ocean Race and used for private pleasure sailing.
ROTHMANS is located in Sweden, and well maintained and cherished by her current owner. She is an outstanding yacht for adventure sailing, charter or just to enjoy sailing privately.
You can find her full specification here: – [OFF MARKET]
She is available now for review on the West Coast for Italy. For further details contact [email protected] .

AMERICA'S CUP
This 50 foot IOR racer, Design No. 155, was commissioned by well known Olympic Gold Medalist David Forbes of Sydney, Australia. The client wanted a yacht which would be highly competitive on the racing circuit off the New South Wales Coast and in the Pan Am Clipper Cup Series.
A great deal of research was put into achieving an all around high performance yacht which would be extremely fast in all weather conditions...rather than being an extreme performer in a given set of conditions which is typical of most designs for Australian campaigns. The design office created a higher than usual sail area to displacement ratio number to improve running and medium air performance. The sail area to wetted surface area is greater (SHR 16.1) to give light weather advantages while retaining the usual high performance Farr characteristics in moderate fresh air conditions common to the New South Wales Coast which necessitate a good beating and reaching yacht. Much of this has been achieved by responding to Rule changes allowing for a narrower waterline beam which was proven successful in the SORC with SNAKE OIL and the World One Tons with HIGHLAND FLING.
One of the most exciting dimensions of Design 155 and one which is unorthodox in the IOR design world, is the development of a keel with a "bulb" attached at the tip. The "bulb" concept reflects our research in maxi yacht keel design, which has proven that our creation of narrow, deep, high performance foils will work even better in conjunction with a bulb.
The hull and fractionally rigged sail configurations are total Grand Prix IOR race boat rating 40. However, the owner requested interior cruising amenities such as two aft double berths, enclosed head and shower, comprehensive galley including microwave, icemaker, hot and cold running water, freezer and deepfreeze. Accordingly, the deck layout and superstructure lines will not be typical of an IOR race boat.
Construction requirements, as specified by Russell Bowler, reflect the use of Kevlar vacuum bagged over a Divinycel core. The yacht will be stiff in overall flexure, torsion and panel flexure. Longitudinal weight distribution will reduce pitching inertia, and important factor when sailing in the rough Australian offshore conditions. Australian weather conditions dictated a thoroughly seaworthy yacht. The American bureau of Shipping is recognized by the design office as providing the benchmark for assessing safety and Farr used these standards as the basis for panel and frame design. This, combined with a deep aluminum ring frame at the mast attached to a centerline longitudinal aluminum supporting frame which takes the keel and engine loads, is attached to another frame aft extending to the topsides to make for an extremely stiff structure.
The Farr design office utilized research from successful One Tonners EXADOR, SUNDANCE, and HIGHLAND FLING, 43 footers SNAKE OIL and DRAKE'S PRAYER and the three Whitbread maxi yachts to develop an overall 50 foot IOR yacht which will be a successful performer in all conditions and exceed the clients requirements for an accommodating interior.
