Description:
MUST SEE TO APPRECIATE!

KARMA was designed by Sparkman & Stephens for safe and comfortable bluewater cruising. Her hand laid solid
fiberglass hull is over 1 thick below the waterline. Karma also has integrated and baffled fiberglass tanks which
eliminates the problems associated with older metal tanks. With 400 gallons of water and 400 gallons of fuel, Karma is well suited for off shore passages. The skeg supported rudder and cut away front full keel make her very safe, stable and comfortable at sea. The center cockpit design allows for generous headroom below. The cockpit itself is very large and comfortable with deep seating and high back rests. Add to that the water tight bimini and full enclosure, you are not only comfortable at sea you are protected from the elements.

The cutter ketch combination allows easy set up for all weather conditions for a crew of two. There is plenty of room on deck to store cruising gear and the tender.

Her accommodations include a large salon with 7' headroom, L-shaped galley with abundant storage and three
refrigerator/freezer units, three staterooms and two heads. Her solid teak, mahogany and ash joinery is stunning and has been well cared for.

This particular boat is sistership to Walter Cronkite's beloved Sunward 48, WYNTJE and was featured in the TV series Dawson's Creek.
This hull was built and completed at the Sunward Yacht facility in Wilmington, NC.

KARMA has been cruising for the past 9.5 years and her seller's are ready for their next adventure. She set sail
from Florida in 2011, and cruised approximately 20,000 miles before her arrival in San Diego, CA.

Many spare parts for all systems are included. Maintenance records are available.
