Details
This boat was a pioneer in performance cruising design. Drawn for Jack Kelly Yachts by Doug Peterson, the 44 debuted as a dedicated cruiser that could sail well in any wind. Today, in many major cruising ports you can find one of the over 200 44s originally built. Owners have nothing but praise for the performance achieved by this moderate-displacement bluewater design; 180-mile days are not uncommon.
Just having safely completed a 7 day crossing from Vanuatu "Talanoa" is now available in Brisbane for Viewing/Purchase. The Peterson 44's Remain a Popular Choice Amongst Cruisers for their Space, Aft Cabin, Centre Cockpit, Pretty Lines and Proven Sailing/Distance Capabilities.
