1998 SALTHOUSE MOTOR SAILOR

Designed by the iconic Bob Salthouse and built in New Zealand in 1998, this 13.03-metre motor sailor represents the pinnacle of local bluewater cruising craftsmanship. Salthouse vessels are revered throughout the Pacific for their robust construction, sea-kindly hulls and thoughtful layout - and this example carries all the hallmarks of that distinguished lineage. Spanning a generous 4.54-metre beam with a modest 1.5-metre draft, she offers the ideal balance of interior volume and coastal versatility. Three well-appointed cabins make her a serious liveaboard or extended passage-making proposition, comfortably accommodating family or crew across multiple berths. The monohull configuration delivers a stable, predictable motion whether motoring through calm harbour waters or powering across Cook Strait. Motor sailers of this calibre combine the efficiency and independence of sail with the reliability and convenience of power - a pairing perfectly suited to New Zealand's diverse coastal conditions. Currently offered in Wellington with a price reduction, this is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a hand-crafted piece of New Zealand maritime heritage at outstanding value. Seriously motivated vendors have priced this vessel to sell. Inspection strongly encouraged - she will not disappoint discerning buyers seeking quality, space and provenance.
