Here, our revered in-house yacht historian, Malcolm Wood, SYT take a closer look at yacht builders that are, for one reason or another, no longer in existence. The subject for this feature is Brooke Yachts International based on the east coast of the UK.

Eros in Monaco in the 1960s

The company was originally established by John Walter Brooke in 1874 as a foundry based in Lowestoft, Suffolk, in England. Initially the company concentrated on building steam engines for marine craft and by late years of the 19th century the company, known as J.W. Brooke &amp; Co., built their first internal combustion engine before introducing a four-stroke engine for marine use in 1913.

Perhaps surprisingly, between 1901 and 1913 the company produced a range of cars that accounted for 75% of their business. One very unusual car was powered by a Brooke engine. It was built in 1909 by a British resident of Calcutta in the shape of a swan with a beak that emitted steam as the car drove along, and the unique vehicle is still in existence today!

Let’s return to the growth of the marine side of Brooke’s from the early years of the 20th century. Initially small power yachts and passenger launches were constructed at Lowestoft and at Oulton Broad. Prior to the company being renamed Brooke Marine Construction Co. in 1934, several motor yachts yachts up to 20 metres were delivered in the 1920s.

Just prior to WWII the company became part of the Dowsett Group and produced small tugs and naval craft. In 1939 Brooke Marine launched their largest yacht to date, a 31.4 metre schooner named Jeanry, later owned by Stavros Niarchos as Eros and still in existence today.

Philante IX built for a prominent British Owner 

During WWII Brooke Marine also built several 34 metre Fairmile navy launches, five of which were converted to motor yachts after the war.

During the 1960s a couple of distinctive motor yachts were delivered – the 23 metre Isambard Brunel in 1961 and the 30 metre Persea in 1964. Don’t forget that Brooke Marine’s main business during early postwar years was commercial and naval vessels – yachts were still an occasional sideline.

One important order came from the Oman Government for a 61.5 metre presidential yacht named Al Said delivered in 1970. This vessel was later converted to naval training/patrol craft in 1983.

History reveals that the company received the Queen’s Award to Industry for Export Achievement in 1968 before becoming nationalised under British Shipbuilders in 1977.

In 1985 Brooke Marine was bought out privately by its management team but closed the following year due to a lack of orders. However, this was not before the yard constructed the 22 metre Virgin Atlantic Challenger II for Richard Branson, which succeeded in breaking the record for crossing the Atlantic by a substantial two hours.

In 1987 the yard reopened as Brooke Yachts International to concentrate on the growing market for superyachts. A successful marketing campaign resulted in the delivery of no less than 12 large vessels over the following six years.

<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/165784/image/large-935d513c1d54cdb1106c3eed2282cc1c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/165784">

G-Whiz, capable of speed up to 49 knots

Briefly, these deliveries were the Ron Holland designed 29 metre sloop Maud and the Colin Mudie designed 44 metre sail training brigantine Young Endeavour in 1987, followed by the Don Shead designed 35.3 metre motor yacht White Rose of Drachs in 1988. The hull of this yacht was built by Souter of Cowes.

Undoubtedly 1989 was Brooke Yachts’ most successful year with four deliveries. These were the 33 metre fast motor yacht G-Whiz, the displacement 54 metre motor yacht Stefaren and the 37 metre motorsailer Beaupre. All these were designed by the late Jon Bannenberg. Also delivered that year was the 44 metre sail training brigantine Tunas Samudera for Malaysia.

1990 saw the launch of the 30.7 metre sloop Gee Dee that had been jointly designed by Ron Holland and Jon Bannenberg. This was followed in 1991 by the Don Shead designed 40 metre motor yacht Philante IX.

Three more deliveries over the next two years were the 43 metre motor yacht Lady Suffolk II designed by Paolo Scanu and Terence Disdale, and the 57 metre motor yacht Chamar, designed by Don Shead for a Canadian client, both in 1992. The final yacht to emerge from the yard in 1993 was the unusual 34 metre motor yacht Kiring, designed by Three Quays and Terence Disdale for an Italian owner.

Stefaren, the 54m mototr yacht built for an American owner 

Brooke Yachts International ceased trading in 1992 although the name and some assets were acquired by Michael Fenton in 2006 who traded as Brooke Marine Yachts Ltd. until 2009. It is believed the site is currently being re-developed for residential use – a sad end for one of the UK’s most prominent superyacht builders.

The Don Shead-designed Deep Blue in Sydney, Australia

Deep Blue was built by Brooke Marine in the UK back in 1988. After a refit in 2012 under her Australian owner, the yacht was returned to her former glory and subsequently found a new owner two years later. Here she is seen anchored outside Sydney over the past weekend.

Ship repairer Burgess Marine has secured a large superyacht refit for its Portchester yard, located at the top of Portsmouth Harbour, in the UK.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/145979/image/large-d45269a76d4e2e3ec1ccf5039098a827.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/145979">The major refit of a 57m, 1992 Swiftship, will encompass structural, mechanical and electrical works across an 8 to 9 month period. The yacht, en-route to UK at the moment, will also undergo paint works and a major interior overhaul by Trimline Superyacht Interiors.Nicholas Warren, Burgess Marine’s Managing Director comments: “Refits on this scale are great news for Burgess Marine, and perhaps more importantly great news for the South Coast and the rest of the UK. She’s a substantial vessel with a major program of works and we look forward to working very closely with the Owners Team”.The Owners Teams, headed up by Andrew Tree of Superyacht Technical Services, has been instrumental in both yard selection and the decision to bring the vessel to the UK. Andrew comments: “It’s great to see her coming to the UK - I’ve known the yacht for many years and it’s a great privilege to be part of this next and exciting phase of her life”.This announcement comes as a hat-trick for Burgess Marine in respect of Superyacht refits; the company is also undertaking major works on a 33m Hakvoort and a 34m explorer yacht from Brooke Marine; both refits are again at the company’s Portchester footprint.Burgess Marine Ltd Nicholas Warren - Managing Director +44 1304 204829 <a href="mailto:n.warren@burgessmarine.co.uk?subject=Burgess%20Marine%20Ltd%20on%20SuperYachtTimes.com">n.warren@burgessmarine.co.uk</a> <a href="http://www.burgessmarine.co.uk">www.burgessmarine.co.uk</a>
