1946 ED MONK!! Must see! Hull restored. Recently added Solar and Water Maker!

This is a beautifully restored Ed Monk design that clearly shows excellent original craftsmanship and detailed care during the restoration project. The hull is constructed with yellow cedar planking, and the interior finishes include black koa from Hawaii. The vessel's provenance includes being the flagship of the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club (RVYC), and was commissioned by a Canadian sailor who was Olympic silver medalist in the sport.

The salon / galley area is equipped with a gimble 3 burner propane stove and oven, a large refurbished refrigerator with a Nova Kool remote condenser and cold plate during restoration, along with a gimbaled table that can be hung from above. There is plenty of cabinet storage, and a large stainless steel sink,

The engine room is quite spacious for a boat like this, even access below the engine is provided.

There are crew quarters in the fore area, just behind the sail storage area. There is a mid-cabin with a single berth and a berth off the salon that will accommodate two. There is also a head with a shower and additional wash sinks in the berth areas.

Unfortunately, the boat has been owned by an absent owner, and the bright work and topside paint is in need of attention. The bottom should be very good because of the high quality bottom paint applied in 2022.

While we will always attempt to provide you with a TRUE representation of every vessel we market, during any purchase from Pop you will be encouraged to schedule an inspection from an independent, accredited surveyor and every purchase WILL ALWAYS BE subject to your satisfaction with the results from your independent survey and your own personal trial run.

1946 ED MONK!! Must see! Hull restored. Recently added Solar and Water Maker!
Condition detail
During the restoration, over 100 new laminated Oak frame sections were installed, and the hull was refastened with silicon bronze fasteners. There are also some unique construction components for this boat, separating it from most boats of this vintage. One of the most significant are the 16 foot Galvanized Iron Shear Clamps port and starboard in way of the Chain Plates that provide strength and prevent hogging. The owner, who is an experienced vintage boat restorer, says there is zero hog on this boat, and he reports that, structurally, the refurbishment is 100% complete. The laminated spruce mast was refurbished with the scarfs opened and new epoxy applied, then re-stepped. The owner indicates it is more waterproof than it has ever been. The teak decks appear to be in very good condition, recently refurbished and sealed. The brightwork is also in very good condition with only minor touch-ups needed. The hull is shiny and bright following the restoration and refinishing. The current owner added the wind turbine generator, solar power, and a watermaker. The final touches on the restoration included the installation of stainless steel Genny Tracks (port and starboard), the 24 volt off-shore charging system, an LED anchor light, along with several other LED light upgrades. A Raytheon radar system, a depth sounder, and a speed indicator were also installed at the previous haul-out. There is an original analog speed system that could be rebuilt. The mainsail is a bit tired, and would be best used as a backup. The boom is solid, but could use some new paint. The owner confirms the engine runs strong, and was recently serviced. A GMC service manual is included. All winches have been refurbished by the current owner.
