A rare opportunity to acquire a proven bluewater cruising yacht in the heart of the Caribbean, this 1985 Stevens Custom 47 combines classic Sparkman & Stephens design pedigree with the comfort, storage, and passagemaking confidence sought by serious cruising sailors. Built during the respected Queen Long era, the Stevens 47 is known for her strong fiberglass construction, powerful cutter rig, skeg-hung rudder, and sea-kindly motion offshore.
The interior offers a practical and highly desirable three-cabin layout, ideal for family cruising, guests, or extended liveaboard use. Two comfortable double cabins provide excellent private sleeping quarters, while the additional bunk cabin is perfect for children, crew, visiting friends, or extra storage on long passages. Warm teak joinery, a secure offshore galley arrangement, dedicated navigation area, and a spacious saloon create the classic bluewater ambience for which these yachts are admired.
Currently offered for sale in Grenada, this Stevens Custom 47 is positioned in one of the Caribbean’s most attractive cruising hubs.
