Classic Raised Deck Winslow Cruiser

SEAFARER is a 1926 classic raised deck motor yacht, designed by John Winslow and built at Lake Washington Shipyard in Seattle, Washington.  SEAFARER is a classic gentleman's cruising yacht, and care was taken to preserve her period details and beauty. She has a rounded bilge and a near plumb stem, a full keel with inboard keel shoe hung rudder and a transom stern. There are rubrails on the hull sides, varnished caprails and varnished handrails run on bronze stanchions around the decks.

This boat received an extensive restoration in 2006-2007.  This included refinishing, re-caulking, some wood repair, extensive new plumbing, installation of new galley appliances, and new granite counters in the galley.  The vessel was completely re-wired including new fixtures, electrical panels and engine instrumentation. A new generator was installed. The wheelhouse received all new electronics and all the wood inside and out was stripped and re-finished. More recently the hull was refastened with galvanized screws from the keel up three planks in the center of the hull, under the engine room. Also a new propeller shaft, cutless bearing, and pillow block bearing were installed just two years ago. The cable steering has been replaced with a hydraulic steering unit.

The hull is carvel planked Alaska yellow cedar, galvanized boat nail fastened to bent oak frames. The deck is teak planks on beams, and the cabin sides are planked teak with canvas cabin tops.  There is also a raised wheelhouse and a comfotable cockpit with "U"-shaped seating.

The interior reflects the original period of the boat, and is full of varnished, fine joinery throughout. There is a master stateroom, guest berths, two heads, a galley with granite countertops, a main salon and an enclosed engine room. All finish work and details have been maintained to the highest degree.

SEAFARER is an opportunity to own a pedigree classic and an accessible price.  The current owner is an extremely knowledgeable mariner and has maintained this boat with a great deal of integrity.
