William Fife 8 Metre

IERNE could be the ultimate First Rule 8 M. Her rig is close to the 1914 original and an early example of a large Bermudan. Regardless of the International Rule and its complexity there is a purity to this boat both in the treatment of her rebuild  and her breathtakingly good looks. Since her completion she has been mainly in storage – and is a truly exciting prospect.
