The Laurent Giles Vertue is widely regarded as one of the most accomplished small oceangoing yachts in the history of naval architecture. Conceived by Jack Laurent Giles in 1936, the design was originally embodied in the yacht Andrillot. However, it was the 1950 transatlantic crossing of Vertue XXXV that cemented the model's reputation as a "giant killer." Despite a length overall of just over 25 feet and a waterline of 21 feet 6 inches, the Vertue possesses the structural integrity and motion of a much larger vessel. Built traditionally with a long keel, a transom stern, and a cutter or sloop rig, the design transitioned from bespoke timber builds to a standardized GRP production model, known as the Vertue II, ensuring its longevity across different eras of boatbuilding.
