For 50 years, the Wheeler Family – father and five sons – built yachts of the highest quality. The Wheelers built their boats with only the finest materials available at the time. They were hand crafted and built to last. It was this reputation for quality that drew Hemingway to Wheeler in 1934. This famous boat and its legacy have inspired the Wheelers to introduce an exact copy of the original Wheeler Playmate which Hemingway loved so much. It will have the classic look of the original, but will conform to today's ABS and US Coast Guard standards with modern equipment. The construction of the Wheeler 38 was entirely hand crafted by Brooklin using the finest wood materials including ultra strong douglas fir, African mahogany, and teak decks. From the incredibly strong cold-molded epoxy hull and deck construction to iPad and iPhone control of most onboard systems, this is an heirloom-quality yacht for the ages. Built in Brooklin, Maine.
