George Quayle (1757-1835) of Castletown was a Manx politician, banker, inventor and yachtsman. He built the armed yacht Peggy, which survives as one of the most significant small-craft maritime artefacts in Europe, now housed in the Nautical Museum at Bridge House, Castletown. He played a prominent role in the Island's administration and economy during the period following the Revestment.
