The Snapdragon 27 Mk II stands as a definitive example of the "sturdy cruiser" era of British yacht building. Produced by Thames Marine on Canvey Island during the late 1960s and 1970s, the Mk II was a refined evolution of the original Snapdragon 27, designed to maximize internal volume and seaworthiness for family sailors. Unlike the performanceoriented designs emerging from France at the time, the Snapdragon was built with the rugged, tidal waters of the UK in mind. It remains a popular fixture in East Coast estuaries and South Coast harbors, prized for its ability to "take the ground" and its remarkably spacious accommodations for a vessel of its length.
