Drawn for Jack Kelly Yachts by Doug Peterson, the KP 46ââ?¬â?¢ is a dedicated moderate displacement cruiser that can sail well in any wind; 200-mile days are not uncommon.

These boats are found in seas all over the world today with a large number of loyal owners. Built in the prestigious Queen Long Yard in Taiwan ââ?¬Å?Stay Tuned," hull #5, built in 1982, features very high-quality construction throughout.
