Davidson 52 Performance Ketch

Boat Name: Tauranga

$425,000.00

Features

Tauranga is a sleek performance cruising ketch designed by legendary designer Laurie Davidson. She oozes quality, comfort, and speed, with a deck and interior layout to suit most couples or families. Sail handling systems are designed to make life onboard a breeze, with furling genoa and in-boom furling for both mainsails. Wide side decks, a secure cockpit with a solid dodger, and bulkhead steering make her an awesome offshore yacht.

Stepping below you continue with the quality and generous layout. There is a large u-shaped galley with a 4-burner stove/oven and plenty of storage space. The saloon has leather cushions and seats at least 6 comfortably. Up forward is a toilet with shower and a large double V berth. Moving aft past the chart table is a passage that leads to the master cabin with writing desk, double bed and ensuite.

She is powered by an 88hp Turbo charged Yanmar driving a Max prop with rope cutter. 4 x 48W + 3 x 135W  solar panels managed by Vectron Systems. Instruments are a combination of B&G for sailing and Raymarine for navigation.
