The Slocum 43 was designed by Stan Huntingford and built in Taiwan. She is a World-Renowned, Heavily Built, Ocean-Going Sailboat: not only beautiful, but extremely solid and seaworthy. Aft cockpit, raised cabin with rich solid teak interior, she was designed to be an upscale bluewater cruiser. "Ritual" is offered for sale in the Chesapeake Bay after spending years in the Great Lakes and the past few years cruising the Eastern Atlantic. Owners are moving abroad and this very well maintained Slocum 43 is ready for new owners and new adventures. All Offers will be entertained.
