Both Randi and I have always been fond of Bob Perry's designs, and this Tayana 48 is no exception to that. This boat is beautifully designed for a couple or a small family to live aboard comfortably and sail the world. It's also designed with performance i...
This Sundeer 64 yacht has a lot to love. In a nutshell she's pretty, performance-oriented, and has plenty of accommodation. In addition she's designed and outfitted for going anywhere. Lastly, she's a reasonable price for a 64' yacht of this quality at an ...
No, we ARE NOT giving up on the sailing dream for RV/Van life. We bought the cheapest new travel trailer we could find, a 2021 Coleman Lantern 17B from Gander RV during a Christmas/New Years sale for $9995.00, so that we could road trip all summer and get ...
The Alden Dolphin 47's classic lines definitely convey the romanticism of sailing. Basically, she's a pretty boat! Alden's have a reputation of being solid offshore cruising vessels and this boat is no different. She's a cutter-rigged ketch with a center c...
Island Packet Yachts is known for building high-quality bluewater cruisers, and this boat is no exception! Designed by Bob Johnson, The Island Packet 38 is a vessel to take you to the Caribbean Islands and beyond in safety and comfort. She sports a wide be...
Let me be clear. I LOVE Lyle Hess boats, and the Bristol Channel Cutter is one of my favorite designs by him. This vessel, Sun Star, is a 1979 Bristol Channel Cutter that has been abandoned for a long time in a small boatyard in Florida. Normally, these bo...
I was pleasantly surprised by the Gulfstar 42. I like the layout, the cockpit design, and the shear amount of space in the engine room and lazarettes. Gulfstar is typically not a brand you find on people's lists for bluewater cruisers, but I don't think th...
Designed by German Frers, the Hylas 46 is certainly a beautifully elegant and functional bluewater cruiser. On deck, the center cockpit, teak decks, wide transom, and cutter rig stand out. Below deck, the forward cabin and head design are perfect along wit...
For a 56 year old boat, Yellow Bird has a lot to like. She's a 1964 Chris Craft 35 foot Sailyacht. This was one of the first fiberglass boats to be built by Chris Craft.
She boasts a huge and protected center cockpit, an open aft deck, a separate aft cab...
Passport Yachts is known for building high-quality bluewater cruisers, and this boat is no exception! She might be starting to show her age slightly, but she's generally in good shape and with a little work she can be ready to cross oceans again. The Passp...
Lock Crowther was an Australian multihull designer known for his performance catamaran designs. The boats are light, fast, and strong. Over 2500 of his designs have been built over the years.
This particular Spindrift 40 was purchased by Billy and Sierra...
We've been wanting to get aboard a St. Francis catamaran for a while now. They're a lesser known catamaran brand, but they build serious bluewater cruisers meant to sail the world in luxury. It seems that most of the catamarans we really like are built in ...

Voyage Yachts builds high quality catamarans based in South Africa. The Voyage 430, and later 440, are both well-designed yachts built to bal...
The Smart Cat S280 starts to fulfill a gap in the cruising catamaran market that needed to be filled. Before today, "small and affordable" could never enter the same sentence as "cruising catamaran," with most cruising catamarans starting at half a million...

Manta Catamarans are one of the only catamarans that were built in the USA, and are arguable the only BLUEWATER catamarans built in the states. Unfortunately, Manta is out of business, so there aren't any new Mantas for sale, but the older ones are still s...

The time has come for Freebie to go to her next owner and fittingly "for free," in the same manner we received her in 2017. We're excited to pay it forward and off our boat for free to a good home. We're really looking forward to reading through your email...
The Whitby 42 and the Brewer 42 are both proven bluewater cruisers, but is this one a worthwhile project? You decide.

Prout has a proven track record of making great cruising catamarans, capable of offshore cruising. Although small, this boat is no exception and I'd still have to say her interior space is more comparable to that of a 38 or 40 foot monohull.
Is this boat...
This boat was built in 1972 by Camper & Nicholsons, and she's crossed the Atlantic three times since then. She needs some work, as all old boats do, but she's got great bones and is looking for her new owner to bring her back to her glory days
We real...

As far as I know this is the first Outremer model ever built. She is a very simple, fast, ocean going catamaran. Although she's in ROUGH shape and she'll never be as nice as a new catamaran, she does have potential to be a great racer/cruiser if someone is...
