*****REDUCED $20,000 for Quick Sale!!!!!! This is a REAT VALUE in a beautiful WORLD CRUISER     “RUFARO” is a World-Cruising Custom Ketch of impressive construction & scantlings. Beam is 14’ 4” and she’s 49’ on deck and weighs in at over 17 tons with some 12,400lbs in ballast in her full keel with cutaway forefoot (for stability & true tracking in a seaway and nimbleness in close quarters). She is exceptionally comfortably laid out down below & features excellent deck space & seating areas above decks & for sail handling, etc. This vessel was built to go to sea & to stay there. If a real passage-maker fits your needs, this is a boat you are bound to appreciate. She’s well-found for cruising and/or living aboard & is ready to go to sea with minor attention to details (like touching up the exterior bright work & deck oil & adding food to the reefers). RUFARO has plenty of ground tackle, Electric Anchor Winch, Full Boat Cover, both headsails are on Roller Furling, 6 Barient Self-Tailing Winches, lines led aft for short-handed sailing, Yanmar Diesel, Yanmar Aux. Generator Set, Aluminum Spars, Full Gourmet Galley with Refrigeration & Freezer, 6’ 4” to 6’ 7” Headroom, two Enclosed Marine Heads with Showers,lavish use of bright finished tropical hardwoods below and tasteful appointments as well as great light & ventilation from Skylights, Deck Prisms & Opening Bronze Ports as well as good-sized Dorade Ventilators, Lots of hanging lockers & storage space, Wheel Steering w/ Binnacle, Leather, Ship’s Table/Settee (custom U-Shaped Maple), Auto pilot, RADAR, 406 EPIRB, ICOM VHF, ICOM SSB,Watermaker, TEAK & Holly Sole, sleeps 6 to 8 in four separate areas & features full-sized Double Bunk in Fwd Master Stateroom, and a great deal more. Built in the USA & US Coast Guard Documented, this beautiful traditionally-styled Blue Water Cruising Ketch was custom-built using the exceptionally strong and minimal maintenance cold-molded epoxy lamination technique and then sheathed with additional fiberglass lay- up ensuring high strength & resilience, minimal maintenance, excellent insulation properties & an unusually dry boat. We consider this cold-molding protocol to be the finest & most preferable yacht construction technique available today and it insures at the same low preferred rates as fiberglass whilst incorporating the many advantages of the cold-molded construction method. The observation that she’s Big, Comfortable, Seakindly & Seaworthy only begins to describe this exemplary yacht: she must be seen to be properly appreciated.
