Originally built in 1972, Durbeck made some really heavy duty cruising yachts, built to go anywhere. The hulls on the fiberglass Durbecks are extremely thick and overbuilt, leading to a heavy-displacement cruiser like this one.
In our opinions, this boat is a great deal for what it is. All old boats need work, but this one is pretty ready to move aboard and start a cruising lifestyle.The biggest things I would tackle would be the electronics, sails, and some cosmetic work, but for the price you can’t beat this boat. I doubt you’ll find a cheaper boat over 50 feet in this good of condition.
