Modern sloops are generally made from carbon fiber, although traditionally this craft was built from wood like many other sailboats in the early 17th and 18th centuries. Fiberglass models are generally crafted from molds or by pouring a fiberglass resin over the original wood hull and exterior. There are a number of actual vessel styles that can use a sloop rig, which features a single, larger central mast for easy handling.
Sloops can be outfitted with a number of rigs and sail upgrades, including wind-seekers, storm jibs, spinnakers, gennakers, and other sails and rigging equipment. For sailors who race, there are plenty of performance upgrades, including premium navigation systems, race-inspired radar and satellite systems, and more. Marine stereos, coolers and live wells, and other accessories can be outfitted on sloops, as well. more

G.W Noble Sloop; 26 ft., 1966
Beautiful 26’ sloop built in 1966 by G.W. Noble in Thornbury Ontario. Mahogany planked over laminated oak ribs; all bright work is mahogany except Sitka mast/boom. Cabin construction seems to follow 1949 drawing of “Tradewinds” by Crocker except for squaring off of the forward cabin end. Meticulously maintained with yearly re-varnishing of all bright-work, mast and boom. 6 cyl. Renault diesel engine with low hours. Bathroom available but unused by current owners. Forward bunk and 2 side seat/bunks in main cabin with cushions. Small sink in main cabin and electrical capabilities but no stove. There are cushions for the front berth. Inside winter storage yearly. 3 sails with newer storage bags, dock-box, bumpers and trailer included.
(Notes from the owner below)
Notes from the family:
“The engine is a two cylinder Renault with very low hours as it was only used for entering and leaving the dock The engine has only required routine maintenance.
My mom has no idea about time on the engine but I think if it had 100 hours I’d be surprised. As my parents aged they only did short sails and used it more like a cottage. The trailer is used yearly to take it to and from storage and looks sturdy but there’s no name on it. Looks very much like custom built for the boat itself. The boat is located in Goderich, which is where it went in 1980 when my parents bought it.” more
