I, as broker, visited this boat in person recently and found her to be very well setup and updated for offshore cruising with all the right things done In all the right ways, the big money has been spend in all the right ways, and her low price is to represent her need for a paint job to look first rate, which is well deserving of her first rate outfitting and setup.

The "Sea Rat" is a 1978 Westsail 42 cutter, hull #100, with unique history. Originally stored unfinished in California for 30 years, its sails and rigging remain in excellent condition, making it a low mileage boat only commissioned in 2008. With a tall rig, 2-spreader mast, new standing rigging, new chainplates, and a Yanmar 4JH4-TE diesel engine with just 700 hours, its ready for long voyages with water maker, solar power, 12 volt Air Conditioning, Monitor Windvane, Feathering Prop and so much more! Despite its 46-year age, it has only been actively used for about 15 years, showing far less wear than expected. Currently located in a DIY marina in St. Marys, GA, it's ideal for hands-on owners. Known for its ultimate seaworthiness, stability, and comfort, the Westsail 42 can sustain you over ocean passages, yet also performs well in lighter winds, and offers a comfortable ocean cruising experience for the wise sailor.
