Boat Description

Now priced at $89,900, CARA LYNN is a beautifully equipped Alden 46, crafted by one of New England's premier semi-custom builders. The current owners have consistently invested in upgrades, enhancing her timeless design with an aft cockpit that turns heads wherever she sails. This robust, sea-friendly performance cruising yacht features a stunning two-stateroom interior finished in varnished teak and is perfectly suited for extended shorthanded offshore adventures. With a shoal draft keel and centerboard, she provides access to a wide range of sailing destinations and harbors. Accommodations include a cozy main salon, a spacious galley, a generous navigation center, and a large master suite forward with a double V berth and an ensuite head featuring a separate shower. The aft guest cabin offers a convertible queen bed, and a conveniently located guest/day head is just off the companionway. Significant upgrades in 2014/2015 included the installation of a bow thruster, two new heads (one electric), a new holding tank, refinishing and painting of the bottom and keel, and a thorough inspection and repainting of the rigging and mast. These enhancements totaled around $60,000. Previous upgrades include Seafrost holding plate refrigeration, comprehensive rudder bearing service in 2008, a North MPS with sock (2006), a Northstar 952 GPS plotter with a cockpit repeater, new headliners throughout, and rebedding of deck hatches and opening ports. For sailors seeking a stunning, proven, high-quality, semi-custom performance cruising yacht that is fast and sea-friendly, the Alden 46 CARA LYNN deserves your serious consideration. As one of Alden's most sought-after designs, replacing her today would cost about $1.2 million from a reputable New England yard. Her spacious aft cockpit, wide side decks, and expansive foredeck make sailing a true delight, while her sea-kindly hull and shoal draft keel design ensure safety and comfort for offshore passages or coastal cruising.
