Custom Tahiti Ketch used

Expertly crafted as a double-ended sailboat, this 1965 Custom Tahiti Ketch represents the timeless vision of naval architect John Hanna. With a length of 9.15 meters and a beam of 3.05 meters, this wooden vessel is celebrated for its structural integrity and historical reputation for ocean-crossing capabilities. Maintained in excellent condition, this used boat has undergone significant restorations. The deck was completely redone in 2012, while the standing rigging was replaced in 2018. The exterior aesthetic was renewed in 2019 with a fresh coat of paint on the topsides and masts, ensuring its classic lines remain protected and striking. Propulsion is provided by a 2000 Volvo 56hp engine, showing approximately 1600 hours of use. The sail inventory was modernized in 2020, featuring a genoa, staysail, and mizzen sail. For comfort and ease of handling, the vessel is equipped with a bow thruster, Webasto heating, and a comprehensive electronics suite including radar, a chart plotter, an autopilot, and an anchor windlass. Recent updates include 2024 batteries and a 2019 interior soft goods refurbishment. Designed for those who appreciate traditional maritime craftsmanship combined with functional modern upgrades, this boat offers five berths and one head. It is currently located in Italy.
