| The schooner yacht Malabar X , designed by John Alden ,was originally built
in 1930 by Hodgdon Bros. in Boothbay Harbor, Maine. She was victorious in
the Bermuda Cup Race in both 1930 and 1932 with John Alden at the helm.
After being damaged in Hurricane Bob in1989 she was purchased by her current
owner/ captain, Doug Hazlitt. After being trucked to Ithaca N.Y. Dennis
Montgomery, owner of Cayuga Wooden Boatworks and his able crew began her
full restoration. Three years later Malabar X was launched and ready for her
new life on Seneca Lake.
Malabar X is available for daysails in Watkins
Glen, N.Y.. in the summer months and travels south for the winter months
ready for public and private charters. Doug and crew have sailed in the
Great Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race ,winning first in class in 2004. Malabar
X Œs USCG certified crew are knowledgeable in both the waters she sails and
the history of the vessel. A charter aboard this classic racing schooner
offers each passenger a turn at the helm, a chance to trim the sails or the
opportunity to sit back and relax. . Malabar X is available for public and
private charters which we can design around each groups needs whether its
for training purposes or just for fun. Malabar X¹s grace and beauty would be
an asset to any port. We are equipped to carry 30 people on our daysail
charters and can accommodate 4 people for a private Bunk and Board Cruise.
