Chuck Paine has been designing and building yachts for over 60 years. He has been the chief designer for many of the world's highest quality yacht builders. Morris Yachts, Lyman-Morse Boatbuilding, Cabo Rico Yachts, Able Marine, York Marine and French & Webb in America, Bowman and Victoria Yachts in the UK, Kanter in Canada, Kelly Archer in New Zealand, and Gouwerok in Holland are a few examples of high-end yachtbuilders who have built more than 1000 individual yachts to Paine designs. It has not escaped Chuck's notice of late that the majority of large yachts today spend their lives unused in marinas, incurring slip fees and maintenance expenses without providing any enjoyment to their owners. Only the smaller, easily singlehanded boats seem to be used on sparkling summer weekends. So in the past few years, Chuck has devoted his talents to a new era in yacht design: designing and building small, elegant, easily usable, classic sailboats with eternal appeal, affordable in view of their gemstone quality; but like all of his oeuvre to date, devoid of any pretense of being cheap. This site provides access to Chuck's archive of yacht designs and highlights the growing portfolio of small, easily maintained and easily gotten going sailboat designs he is focusing on these days.
