Over the past 20 years Fairlie Restorations have undertaken the complete restoration of many famous classic yachts. Much of the work we have done in these years has been on composite racing yachts from the first 2 decades of the last century; As it was the height of technology of the time the composite structure (wood planking over a steel skeleton) was favoured for high performance racing yachts. This paper describes the work undertaken during the restoration of 2 such yachts, Mariquita (1911) and Lulworth (1919).
