1976 SALTHOUSE MK1

The Salthouse MK1 represents one of New Zealand's most respected and enduring production yacht designs - a name that carries genuine weight among serious sailors throughout the Pacific. Built in 1976, this 12.8-metre monohull is a testament to the craftsmanship and engineering philosophy that made Salthouse Boatbuilders a cornerstone of New Zealand's maritime identity. Stretching 12.8 metres with a reassuring 3.8-metre beam and a shallow 1.1-metre draft, this vessel offers an exceptional combination of interior volume, stable offshore performance and ease of coastal navigation. Two well-appointed cabins provide comfortable accommodation for extended cruising, making her equally suited to weekend passages through the spectacular Bay of Islands or longer blue-water adventures. Currently located in Kerikeri - arguably one of New Zealand's most enviable home ports - this Salthouse MK1 presents a rare opportunity to acquire a genuine classic that holds both sentimental and practical value. These boats are increasingly sought after by collectors and experienced sailors who understand that quality built into a hull in 1976 rarely needs improving. Currently Under Contract, this listing reflects the strong market demand for quality Salthouse vessels. Priced at NZD $189,000.
