About this sailing yacht
Set sail on a timeless adventure with "Chetwynds of Upton," a classic Bruce Roberts 43.
Originally molded in late 1986 under the watchful eye of a marine surveyor, and professional fit out completed in 1989, this vessel boasts exceptional build quality and is ready for its next chapter.
Solid Construction & Luxurious Comfort:
Flush teak deck design offers clean lines and ease of movement.
Epoxied below waterline from new.
Encapsulated lead ballast with a 2 meter draft provides exceptional stability.
Solid teak decks, bonded to the deck molding for unwavering strength.
High-quality, top-end interior fit-out in warm American cherry, featuring a special layout for 5 people with 2 private heads and showers.
Ready to Explore:
Hood in mast reefing & roller reefing to head sails, including running poles for trade-wind sailing.
North cruising sails for efficient passage making (1 set unused.)
Reliable self-steering with a Hydrovane lets you relax on longer journeys.
Large water and diesel tankage ensures extended cruising range.
Perkins Sabre M 65 engine (new in 2004) with low hours (258) provides dependable power when needed.
Whitlock wheel steering offers precise control.
65lb CQR anchor with heavy-duty chain and electric capstan (Volans Vertical Electric Windlass) ensures secure anchoring.
Comprehensive navigation suite including B&G instruments, Furuno GPS, Icom IC59 Euro VHF, RX10 Ratheon Radar and Icom SSB keeps you connected and informed.
Auxiliary 12v alternator provides ample power for onboard systems, recently fitted solar panel for trickle top-up.
"Chetwynds of Upton" has been lovingly maintained but awaits some superficial TLC due to not being used for the past 6 years, and now stored ashore in Villa Real De Santo Antonio, Portugal.
This is reflected in the attractive price.
This presents a fantastic opportunity for a discerning sailor to acquire a well-equipped and classic sloop with a high-quality interior at a great value. With some cosmetic attention, "Chetwynds of Upton" will be ready to create lasting memories for its new owner.
"Chetwynds of Upton" is a well-equipped and lovingly maintained classic cutter rig sloop, specially built for our maiden voyage to the West Indies in 89. See our story in Yachting Monthly (April 1990.)
"Chetwynds of Upton" is more than just a boat; it's a meticulously documented vessel with a rich history. Every piece of equipment onboard comes with its original paperwork and instructions, neatly organized in a dedicated library within the boat. This meticulous record-keeping ensures peace of mind and simplifies future maintenance. We haven't even mentioned everything! The comprehensive inventory includes essential safety gear like double horseshoe buoys, a life sling MOB system, and a 6-man Zodiac life raft (though the CRT certification may need renewal). The galley features a reliable Taylor's paraffin stove and heater, perfect for creating delicious meals at sea. There's a ton more to discover onboard "Chetwynds of Upton." Give me a call to find out more!
