NEW LISTING! It's difficult to add to the list of superlatives shared by the owners, crew, and all those fortunate enough to have spent time aboard a Santa Cruz 52, but Escargot, hull number one, is truly unique. Bill Lee drew and built the 52 as a more versatile successor to the legendary Santa Cruz 50. Over her life, this particular 52 has been on the continuous receiving end of upgrades and performance modifications, including a turbocharged Hall Spars custom carbon mast with a 15/16 fractional rig that stands seven feet taller than her original spar, and an extended carbon boom.

The SC52's design brief called for a fast, refined, racer-cruiser experience, and this is where Escargot is truly special among her sisterships. All powered winches can be controlled from multiple locations, including panels at the helm station, making her easy to sail solo or shorthanded in cruise mode by experienced hands. Hydraulic outhaul, vang, backstay, and traveler controls are also at the helm, and all halyards are led aft into Bill Lee's generous, ergonomically well thought out cockpit. A carbon salon table, floorboards, a removable/retractable bow thruster, a removable anchor windlass with a carbon opening cover, and a spare set of carbon standing rigging can all be installed or removed as needed, letting her shift easily between race and cruise configurations. It's all so easy it should come with a cup holder, and true to the "fast is fun" mantra, four are molded into her cockpit coaming to secure your beverages of choice. This is a yacht truly worth a look!

ANOTHER PRICE DROP for the Able Apogee 50 BITTERSWEET! Built by Able Marine in Southwest Harbor, Maine, the Apogee 50 combines performance, strength, and timeless beauty. With her powerful rig, balanced hull form, deep fin keel and water ballast, she is a sailor’s yacht — capable of crossing oceans swiftly and safely, while offering the comfort and elegance of a finely finished cruising yacht.

The Apogee 50 was conceived as a performance cruiser with the heart of a racer and the soul of a passagemaker. BITTERSWEET carries that spirit with a warm, inviting interior satin varnished cherry, robust offshore systems, and a deck layout optimized for shorthanded sailing. She has received a high level of care and attention over recent years and shows as a far newer boat. From the exterior, her hull, deck and spars are shiny. Portlights and hatch lenses are clear. Sail handling systems are updated and operate well, including recent Harken deck hardware. Electronics have recently been replaced, and she features a full Victron energy package including lithium batteries. Her interior has been refinished and is in beautiful condition. The engine room/mechanical space is clean and well organized and systems throughout show true pride of ownership. BITTERSWEET represents a rare opportunity to acquire a Maine-built yacht of this caliber.

PRICE DROP! Min ö is a turnkey, highly upgraded Leopard 45 that is a rare find in the Pacific Northwest. She features a good balance of capable performance with refined onboard comfort. The deck plan is clean and secure for shorthanded operation, with well-designed sail handling that can be accomplished by electric winches at the raised helm station.

The high-end enclosures are by Breezy Canvas with optional zip out screens. Her three stateroom/three head layout provides truly luxurious accommodations for her size, with ample light in the cabins from overhead hatches and hull side windows.

NEW LISTING! Lightning is a fine example of a classic Sparkman & Stephens yacht. Designed by S&S and built in 1970 by Stephens Marine in Stockton, California, she has the clean lines, balanced proportions and purposeful character that have made these yachts enduring classics. Built in aluminum with a deep fin keel, tall bulwarks and a traditional deck layout, Lightning combines a practical offshore character with the beauty of a well-proportioned classic yacht. Her interior follows the same tradition, with painted bulkheads, mahogany trim, teak-and-holly soles and period details throughout.

Lightning has been particularly well cared for over the years, retaining much of her original character while benefiting from ongoing maintenance and improvements. Her history is closely tied to Stephens Marine and West Coast sailing. Originally owned by Theo and Barre Stephens, she won her class at the St. Francis Yacht Club Big Boat Series in 1970 and 1971. She came to the Pacific Northwest in 1980 with John Woodley and has remained within the Woodley/Milne family ever since. Over more than four decades, the family has preserved Lightning as both a capable sailing yacht and an important part of their family history, with her racing career gradually giving way to family cruising.

The Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival is this weekend, and we'll be there with the beautiful Rhodes 50 ROWENA! Tickets and more info here: https://woodenboat.org/

ROWENA is a true classic sailing yacht designed by renowned American naval architect Philip L. Rhodes and built by the esteemed Lester Stone Yard of Alameda, California. She is constructed of solid mahogany planking; bronze fastened throughout and reflects the highest standards of traditional American yacht building. Her comfortable, open interior plan is well suited to extended cruising, while her proven offshore pedigree inspires confidence in both heavy weather and light airs.

With well over 100,000 ocean miles beneath her keel, Rowena has demonstrated herself to be a fast, safe, and remarkably comfortable cruising yacht. Her deep cockpit, protected by a substantial hard dodger, is thoughtfully arranged for shorthanded sailing. Large primary winches, lazy jacks for the mainsail, and a ProFurl roller-furling genoa make sail handling straightforward and efficient. Her clipper bow, cutter rig, and graceful sheer continue to turn heads under sail and at the dock alike.

In recent years, ROWENA has continued to fulfill her purpose as a serious cruising yacht, exploring the waters of British Columbia, Southeast Alaska, Haida Gwaii, and the rugged outer coast of Vancouver Island. She is not a museum piece, but a proven cruising vessel that remains active, capable, and ready for her next adventure. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a classic yacht of exceptional pedigree, enduring beauty, and demonstrated capability. ROWENA is ready to carry her next steward on a voyage of their own.

NEW LISTING! Low maintenance. Safe. Manageable. Comfortable. These were clearly central considerations when PATINA’s original owners commissioned Ted Brewer to design this exceptional 35-foot cruising sailboat. The result is a compact, purpose-built offshore cruiser that combines the forgiving sailing characteristics of Brewer’s cutaway full keel and distinctive “Brewer Bite” with the strength, durability and repairability of an aluminum hull. Her 3/16-inch 5086 aluminum construction, approximately 7,000 pounds of internal lead ballast, protected rudder and watertight collision bulkhead provide a level of structural security rarely found in a boat of this size. Just as importantly, PATINA was designed to be maintained and repaired by her owners. The bare aluminum deck and cabintop, welded mounting plates for nearly all deck hardware, excellent systems access and remarkably well-documented installations eliminate many of the maintenance challenges found on more conventional cruising boats.
