A MUST-SEE YACHT….. ”     Having been actively involved in the brokerage and new boat and brokerage yacht industry since 1975, we have been fortunate to have been able to broker some very amazing and special yachts. Our specialty has always been quality, bluewater passage makers, so we are very pleased and proud to have been appointed by an experienced and lifelong yachtsman, to offer his highly customized Sheel 45. The Scheel 45 was designed and built in Maine by Henery Scheel one of the more innovative and forward-thinking yacht designers of the past century. Today, he is often remembered as the father of the Scheel Keel, however, the yachts he designed and built have earned him a solid reputation among the best designers of the modern cruising sailing yacht. Due to the economic and political realities of the times, there was only a handful of these great yachts ever built. Not only are they heavily built and comfortable, given the efficient modern hull form, and safe fast passages. Upon acquiring “Sea Fever ”, the owners undertook a thorough and complete 2-year refit of not only the interior and exterior refinishing, all systems including the engine, generator, electronics, spars, and rigging were incorporated to enable a retired, short-handed crew to make safe, round trip annual passages between New England and Florida. Among the highlights is the powered Hood Furling for the main and mizzen mast. This ketch rig not only breaks up the sail area into a more manageable configuration, it also allows for the boat to be able to pass under all waterway bridges up and down the east coast. Primary winches are powerful Barrient 32 CST electrics and the bow thruster makes docking safe and manageable by the short-handed crew. If you are in the market for a large, safe, and comfortable long-range passagemaker, you will find it well worth your while to give “Sea Fever” a very thorough consideration. Henry A. Scheel was a yacht designer who brought innovations to boating at a time when tradition prevailed. A naval architect who studied at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the 1930s. After graduating he began working for the Bureau of Ships in Washington, D. C. during World War II. After the war, he opened a design office in New York City and later established a business relationship with Stonington Boat Works in Stonington, Connecticut. Together they produced the Stonington Motorsailer yacht series, as well as other custom and stock sport fishing boats, sailboats and power cruisers. During the Korean War, he was employed at Electric Boat in Groton, Connecticut. In the 1960s Mr. Scheel left naval architecture and enter
