1979 Schucker 436 Motor Sailor - SOVEREIGNTY
Very roomy, comfortable, and solidly built. Boats like this simply aren't made anymore-and if they were, the cost would be substantial. SOVEREIGNTY is a proven, capable motor sailor offering exceptional volume, comfort, and cruising efficiency.
An excellent family cruiser or liveaboard, she is US Coast Guard documented with a 2025 survey available. She has just completed a 1,500-mile voyage from Central America, followed by additional coastal cruising, clearly demonstrating her reliability and seaworthiness. Currently located in Charleston, South Carolina.
