The late Ian Bashford founded Bashford Boats (now known as Sydney Yachts) in the early 1980’s. \r\nThe company produced one design yachts such as the J-24 and the ETCHELLS 22.\r\n\r\nThe early 1990’s brought the launch of the new larger BH Boats.

The comapny became Bashford International and the new line was called Sydney Yachts. \r\n\r\nSince, late 1996 the company has expanded its range to include the SYDNEY 38 and, SYDNEY 32 among others. Other recent designs are the SIGNATURE 39 and SIGNATURE 47.\r\n\r\nSince 2013 Sydney Yachts are built at AD Boats in Croatia.
