When General (Then colonel) George S. Patton commissioned one of America’s greatest designers to build him a yacht in 1939, he had the ultimate ambition in mind: “When the war is over, and If I live through it, Bea and I are going to sail her around the world.” When and If was a new idea: a yacht which would maintain all her classic beauty and hold her own in recreational racing whilst being sturdy, comfortable, safe and luxurious enough to take a family on the voyage of a lifetime. When And If is available seasonally for day sails, sunset sails, private charters and film or photography projects. Based in Key West, FL in the winters and Salem, MA and New England waters in the summer. We are happy to make your sail or special event a success
