The work is likely to cost about $1.5 million.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe is going to be gorgeous but there is a lot of work to do,\u201d Loughborough said of the Santana. \u201cI mean really a lot of work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Much of the significant history of the yacht is connected to the period from 1945 to 1957 when Bogart owned and sailed it. Although his love affair with Lauren Bacall is legendary, his son Stephen said Santana was really his father\u2019s great love affair.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cApparently Lauren Bacall wasn\u2019t very fond of the boat,\u201d Loughborough said. \u201cThis was the boys\u2019 boat.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That assessment is confirmed by a quote often attributed to Bogart: \u201cThe trouble with having dames on board is you can\u2019t pee over the side.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He is said to have spent 35 to 45 weekends a year aboard Santana and frequently raced the yacht.<\/p>\n<p>Since Bogart\u2019s death in 1957, the Santana has changed hands many times. It has been featured in articles in Cruising World in 2005 and Sports Illustrated in 1981.<\/p>\n<p>Until last year, it was owned by Paul Kaplan, part owner of one of the largest boatyards in San Francisco Bay.<\/p>\n<p>Kaplan sold it in October to a group with connections to Nantucket, Mass. The group had it hauled to Melville for restoration. Loughborough said the group wants to remain anonymous.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese guys say they are not going to do much racing, but as soon as it\u2019s done they will be racing,\u201d he predicted.<\/p>\n<p>They are from California and intend to bring the yacht back to the West Coast, he said.<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first time the Santana has been in Rhode Island.<\/p>\n<p>The Santana sailed in the 1938 Newport to Bermuda Race and won the schooner trophy. It returned 30 years later, but had less success.<\/p>\n<p>Loughborough said his previous experience refitting two other yachts built by yacht designer Sparkman &amp; Stephens helped him win the contract for the Santana.<\/p>\n<p>A growing talent pool in the Newport area also helped.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf someone was going to rebuild a wooden boat 20 or 25 years ago, everyone would say, \u2018Go to Maine,\u2019\u201d Loughborough said. \u201cI have been here since 1986 and the whole classic boat movement has kind of generated a talent pool on this island and it\u2019s just getting better and better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He cited the graduates of the International Yacht Restoration School in Newport as a factor in the development of that pool.<\/p>\n<p>Loughborough pointed out some of the work that will be needed to restore the Santana. The teak deck and mahogany furniture are worn. Teak stands up better than mahogany, he said, so he might use it to replace the mahogany. Stainless steel pieces on the yacht will be replaced with brass as was originally used. The new owners want it to be as original as possible, he said.<\/p>\n<p>They may even replace the refrigerator on board with an ice box.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will remove every other plank so we can see the framing,\u201d he said. \u201cAnything that is preservable on the original boat we will preserve.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &#8216;Bogie&#8217;s Boat&#8217; to be restored Portsmouth company will spend the next 18 months working on Humphrey Bogart\u2019s former boat Dave Hansen | Staff photographer A crew of about eight to 15 craftsmen will spend the next 18 months restoring the Santana, above and right, a 1935 Sparkman &amp; Stephens schooner.
