Yachts & Expedition Craft
A yacht for the places a deeper keel passes by.
The Bestevaer 36 makes access, shelter and a specific kind of sailing more interesting than size.
Bicycles and Personal Mobility
A different idea of a bicycle.
The Moulton NS D-Pylon makes compact wheels, suspension and a separable frame part of one enduring engineering idea.
Utility Aircraft
The aircraft that still has a job.
The DHC-2 Beaver remains compelling because its shape follows a real mission and an active support system still exists around the type.
Historic Sailing Yachts
Dorade was not finished racing.
A historic yacht returned to ocean racing through restoration, preparation and a decision to use her again.
Historic Sports Cars
The Toyota that changed the question.
The 2000GT changed what a Japanese sports car could mean. Its WHV case combines a small production run, technical ambition and an unusual route back to genuine parts.
Historic Motorcycles
The Black Shadow and the paper trail.
A 1952 Vincent Black Shadow carries matching numbers, a restoration file and four-owner history. The model name is only the first line.
The 2025 Porsche 911 GT3 with Touring package is desirable for what it removes as much as for what it keeps. That still does not make depreciation predictable.
The Pilatus PC-12 PRO makes the strongest case for private aviation when capability answers a real mission, not when the cabin becomes the story.
The Hallberg-Rassy 340 concentrates on a protected cockpit, manageable sail plan and life aboard. Bigger is not the only route to a serious boat.
Yachts & Classic Boats
The Aquarama, beyond the postcard.
Riva’s wooden runabout is an invitation to consider design, use and care together before treating a beautiful boat as a financial asset.
The Cirrus SR family makes a useful starting point for a different kind of value question: what can this aircraft do for the journeys you actually make?
