VAN DE STADT SAMOA 47 AFT COCKPIT  

Prof built in Corten steel and launched in 1997, the Samoa 47 is recognised the world over as one of Van De Stadt's best designs and a very serious blue-water passage maker. Tequila II has just returned from a lap around the Pacific and has everything onboard to go again at a moment's notice. This is a solid, practical and great looking go-anywhere yacht with a 7/8ths fractional rig with optional stay'sl. The systems are simple, robust and proven. The yacht was repowered in 2012 with a Beta Marine 75HP diesel showing 2050 hours. All standing rigging was replaced in 2021. The interior is light and open with sensible galley, a large saloon with comfortable seating for six, two aft cabins - one with a double and the other with twin singles and a very generous master cabin with island style double and ample stowage. The hard dodger provides excellent all-weather protection and the sailing hardware is solid and fit for purpose. If your cruising aspirations demand a yacht that will cope with the worst then Tequila II should be on your shortlist. Priced to sell
