Upgrade Highlights

The owner’s wife is an adventurous, but reluctant sailor, so the owner spared no expense on upfitting Sleighride to make her as reliable, safe, and fun to sail as possible! She has just undergone an extensive professional refit by the storied production facility of Pacific Seacraft sailing yachts, builders of some of the finest blue water sailboats in the world, based in Washington, NC. Her interior is varnished to a beautiful and almost mirror like finish and must be seen to be appreciated.
The improvements she enjoys are many:
- Brand New Lofrans Tigress Windlass
- Brand New B&G Marine Zeus Chartplotter / GPS with autopilot, radar, and wind instruments – state of the art.
- All new Andersen self tailing winches.
- All new rope clutches
- All new standing rigging
- New house battery bank
- New stainless steel lifelines
- Fresh bottom paint – bottom is currently cleaned monthly.
- New feathering prop for sailing efficiency.
- New masthead light.
- New mast mounted LED deck light.
- Hydraulic backstay.
- Brand new canvas bimini & dodger fabricated locally by Innerbanks Canvas, provider of canvas structures to Pacific Seacraft for their brand new sailing yachts.
She is ready for any adventure you may have in mind.
