Little Harbor 51 Pilothouse 1996

Introducing "¾ Time," a remarkable Ted Hood design that successfully completed a circumnavigation from November 2016 to April 2018. This vessel is ideal for the discerning owner seeking a ready-to-sail bluewater cruiser of exceptional quality. Engineered for shorthanded sailing, it features conveniently positioned controls, and much of its circumnavigation was undertaken solo. Since returning to the Chesapeake, "¾ Time" has undergone continuous upgrades and maintenance, ensuring it's fully prepared for ocean crossings. The interior was beautifully refinished in Bali in 2017. This Little Harbor 51 has a shallow draft of just 6 feet with the centerboard raised and a maximum draft of 13'6" when deployed, providing outstanding upwind capabilities. The pilothouse design ensures comfort and safety from inclement weather, whether you're cruising or enjoying downtime at the dock. Recent highlights include: new cockpit and pilothouse cushions (2025), upgraded galley and head light fixtures (2025), a new midstay (2025), refurbished backstay hydraulic cylinders (2024), 12-inch Raymarine Axiom Pro in the pilothouse (2024), 9-inch Raymarine Axiom Pro in the cockpit (2024), 1200 amp hours of new lithium batteries (2024), a rebuilt hydraulic vang (2024), and a factory-refurbished Navtec hydraulic control panel (2021). Additional upgrades include a new bow thruster battery (2023), a new engine start battery (2024), a replaced anchor windlass motor (2024), a new bilge pump (2024), new Morse engine control and cables (2024), a new masthead VHF antenna (2024), and an upgraded Hood stowaway furling system with a more powerful 3/4 hp motor (2022). The Yanmar 4LHA 160hp engine has approximately 2850 hours and was installed in 2015, while the hull was freshly painted in 2020 with Awlgrip in Island Turquoise. Currently berthed in Hampton, Virginia, this boat is a must-see. For further details, please reach out to Nathan Hesse.
