Boat Description

Introducing a 1985 Kelly Peterson 46, powered by a reliable Yanmar 4JH-HTE inboard diesel engine delivering 100 horsepower. This vessel boasts three spacious cabins and two private heads, ensuring comfort and privacy for family or friends during your cruising adventures. A recent insurance survey noted that the boat is in good physical and operational condition, reflecting proper maintenance and care. It is deemed a safe option for coastwise and inland cruising, provided that safety equipment and weather considerations are taken into account. While the boat does require significant cosmetic work to reach its full potential, it comes with new windows and hatches, which are currently protected with plastic to prevent water intrusion. Restoring this vessel could significantly enhance its value. According to Good Old Boat Magazine, the Kelly-Peterson 46 is a robust, bluewater-capable cutter-rigged sailboat, designed by Doug Peterson in 1980, and built in limited numbers by Queen Long Marine in Taiwan. With a length of 46 feet, it offers increased stability and load-carrying capacity while maintaining an impressive balance of speed and seaworthiness, making it perfect for couples or small families undertaking long voyages. Its center-cockpit layout ensures a secure helm and generous interior space, featuring a walkthrough to the aft cabin, a U-shaped galley, a navigation station, a forward V-berth, and multiple settees/berths accommodating 6-7 people. Owners appreciate its sturdy construction, comfortable handling in rough seas, and versatility for circumnavigations, although it may not be as agile as modern designs. Don't miss this new listing!
