FOR SALE AT A GREAT PRICE — ALL OFFERS CONSIDERED! 2011 Bruce Roberts 50 Custom Ketch — Driftwood. Asking Price: $342,000. Located in Fort Myers, Florida.

Overview: Driftwood is a custom bluewater cruiser crafted by the renowned Bruce Roberts and expertly built by Earl Rentmeester. This ocean-ready ketch combines timeless design with impressive structural durability, low-maintenance composite hull technology, and exceptional headroom throughout.

Key Features: 
- **Cold-Molded Epoxy Hull**: Built with laminated Douglas Fir framing and 5-ply birch plywood, diagonally arranged and fully encapsulated in West System 105/205 epoxy, then reinforced with heavy fiberglass cloth. This construction ensures outstanding strength, thermal and acoustic insulation, and eliminates rot or osmosis concerns typical of standard fiberglass hulls.

- **Spacious Headroom**: Enjoy generous vertical clearance in the salon, galley, and sleeping areas—tall sailors can comfortably stand flat-footed and reach the ceiling.
- **Low-Hour Yanmar Diesel Engine**: Equipped with an 88 HP Yanmar 4JH4-TE turbo diesel engine with just over 450 hours of use. Known for its quick starts, fuel efficiency, and smooth operation.
- **Advanced Electrical Systems**: Features a Freedom SW 3000 Inverter and Charger, Xantrex system monitor, dedicated mechanical access cabinets, dual propane storage, and comprehensive AC and DC distribution panels.
