After nearly seven decades since its construction in 1948, the iconic Derwent Class, Undine has undergone a full restoration, and it is nearly complete.

Spearheaded by the Australian Wooden Boat Festival, the Undine project has become a testament to the resilience of maritime heritage and the power of community collaboration.

The Undine project showcases what can be achieved through collaboration, dedication, and a shared love for our maritime culture.

Now, an extraordinary opportunity awaits enthusiasts with a passion for maritime heritage. The lovingly restored Undine is for sale.

The sale directly contributes to the Australian Wooden Boat Festival's mission, allowing the organisation to continue celebrating and safeguarding Australia's rich maritime legacy.
