MOTIVATED SELLERS, ALL REASONABLE OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED
VENTUROUS is the epitome of performance cruising pedigree, from the drawing
board of Bruce Farr and built by Southern Winds Shipyard for serious offshore
cruising. Unlike many of her sisterships, VENTUROUS was designed with a more
ergonomic rig and deck layout to allow for shorthanded sailing. With the crew
quarters, galley, engine room, nav station, and companionway to the sailing
cockpit all located in the aft section of the boat, she was designed for owners
who sail with crew, and/or for crewed charter work. With that said, since 2012,
she has been lived aboard, cruised, and delivered by a couple in their 60’s, who
only occasionally bring on additional crew (often amateur friends/family) for
blue-water passage making.
She has benefited from significant money spent on updates under the current
ownership and presents as a much younger yacht than her age would imply. She is
simply the perfect boat for an experienced couple who wishes to cruise with
minimal crew, or for the owner/operator looking to put her into the charter
fleet.
Update 7/2023
