This Slocum 43' Sailing Yacht that is for sale
was bought new in 1982 while laying in Clear Lake Houston,
Texas. I first saw this Stan Huntingford Design at the
Annapolis boat show and was overwhelmed by it's spacious
stand up room below. It is a very safe, well conceived
blue water cruising yacht. In 1989 I was crossing the
Atlantic on my way to Spain and was caught in a force
11 about 500 hundred miles east of New York. I had all
the sails up with the wind at 55knts and no gunwales
in the water. We did get the fore and main down but
left the stay up and she acted as a storm sail. The
heavy weather last 14 hrs. but found no damage in the
morning. The whole trip there and back caused no damage
to the boat even though more than our share of force
5 or 6s. This is a designed boat that surpasses the
highest standards in construction and design.
Below the yacht is richly appointed in teak joiner work
with new cushions, upholstery, curtains and counter
tops. This yacht Cutter Cruiser is ready to cruise
anywhere you would like to go from Long Island Sound
to sunny Spain or the Panama Canal and West.
This Yacht is lying in Buffalo, NY. She has spent 80%
of her time on the great lakes and taken out of the
water every fall for winter lay up.
