Mooyeen is a distinguished classic motor yacht built for Messrs Homer by Thornycroft Ltd. at Hampton-on-Thames and launched in 1937. Designed as a fast yet comfortable cruising yacht of about 55 feet, she perfectly embodies the refined craftsmanship and innovative spirit of pre-war British yacht building.
Her hull is built in mahogany on helm timbers, complemented by teak decks and beautifully varnished teak brightwork. The yacht’s elegant profile is defined by a striking rounded stem — often referred to as a “Bremen Bow” — and an attractive cruiser stern, giving her both character and timeless appeal. The companionway leads down to an elegant and spacious saloon, notable for its unusually generous headroom for a yacht of this size, creating a welcoming and comfortable living space. Forward, the owner’s cabin features a rare raised sliding glazed hatch that floods the interior with natural light — an exceptional and refined design feature seldom found on motor yachts of the period.
Powered by twin diesel engines and offering well-planned accommodation, she combines reliable performance with classic style. She represents a unique opportunity to host guests in an atmosphere of understated elegance, heritage, and authentic yachting tradition.
