Design inspired by "Joshua" and Bernard Moitessier's final boat "Tamata".  Built by John & Ned Hutton at Sanford-Wood Boatyard, the San Francisco designers & builders of Bernard Moitessier's final boat "Tamata", this rare proven offshore steel ketch will impress.  With hull lines reminiscent of the steel cutters designed for sailing the world's Southern Capes and enduring hurricane winds, "Samarium" will provide a solid platform for world exploration.  2016 purchase survey and 2022 pre-sale survey shows the boat in good condition with validated market value above current asking price.  Audio gauge measurements from both surveys prove a sound hull.  This is a great value for a world class steel offshore passage-making live-aboard vessel.
