1993 Custom 46' Baraka Cutter


ESME is a custom-built 46' cutter that has just returned from an approximately nine-month family cruise through the Caribbean and to Panama, a real-world voyage that speaks to her offshore capability, livability, and proven use as a cruising sailboat.


Built in Florida in 1993 by Rand Speas and Guy Erickson, ESME is based on Chuck Paine design lineage and constructed using cold-molded marine plywood with epoxy and fiberglass sheathing. Her construction approach and build story were featured in Boatbuilder Magazine (March/April 1996) as a cold-molded epoxy case study (article available upon request).

ESME is a heavy-displacement (18-ton) offshore cruising sailboat with a 63' mast, 5'6" draft, and versatile cutter rig. She features a pilothouse-style raised deckhouse that provides excellent shelter and visibility; the primary helm is located aft in the cockpit, protected by a dodger.


Inside, the layout is practical and comfortable with three cabins and six berths, generous storage, and the kind of volume and utility that works well for liveaboard life, extended cruising, or comfortable time at anchor. This is a straightforward, serviceable cruising boat intended for sailors who appreciate traditional sail handling and simple, proven systems.


The owners invested in numerous updates and improvements during 2024-2025 in preparation for and during their cruising season. Documentation and receipts are available upon request.
