It was way back in 2012 that we made a perpetual trophy for the Musto Skiff sailing class. It was a perpetual sailing trophy for the Australian state of Victoria titles.
We have recently added a Musto Skiff perpetual sailing trophy for the Australian National Titles.
The customer chose to add a double base to the Australian perpetual sailing trophy in order to accommodate many years of annual plaques.
I’ve made many trophies for Irish sailors but with this one I did something I don’t often do. I stained the map of Ireland green.
I normally only use timbers in their natural colour but as I don’t have any green wood I made an exception in this case.
I’ve also made keeper sailing trophies for the Moth class, both with and without foils. You can check some out here.
This one went to New Zealand earlier this year.
The customer requested a list of the timbers that I’d used. Here it is.
This special perpetual sailing trophy has just arrived in Marina del Rey, California.

Thank you for your wonderful service. Any doubts I had working with a company so far away melted right from the start with your prompt replies. As an artist myself (custom nautical jewelry), I love your method of mockup, I knew what I was getting when I placed the order. I have a feeling you may hear more from this area when this gets seen.
Cheers

This is what it turned out like.
