1965 Pearson Countess 44 Ketch - Extensive Upgrades
Beautiful and graceful classic 1965 Pearson Countess 44. This timeless cruising yacht features a rock solid fiberglass hull and deck with no soft spots and has undergone significant updates over the years by a longtime knowledgeable owner and former yacht captain.
Repowered with a 2006 Yanmar 110HP diesel engine with very low hours, the boat cruises comfortably at 6.5+ knots while offering a clean, uncluttered engine room with excellent access. The decks were stripped to fiberglass and professionally painted with Awlgrip, while the deckhouse was epoxy painted and redesigned with sleeker replacement windows for a more modern profile.
Wide side decks and thoughtfully removed unnecessary fittings create a clean and functional layout that is easy to move around while underway. The easy-to-sail ketch rig, oversized cockpit, and spacious accommodations make this an ideal cruising vessel for extended stays aboard or coastal passages.
Owned for the past 22 years by an experienced ex-yacht captain, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly classic vessel that has been continuously cared for and thoughtfully improved.
And fair warning - don't buy this boat if you don't like saying "thank you" to everyone who sails by and comments, "beautiful boat."
