Description
"Das Boot" has gone through quite a transformation. In 2018 the present owner invested a considerable amount to upgrade and improve this fine vessel. She has not been raced, only lightly sailed since. She has proven to be a successful club racer in the past and is ready for her next owner to get her back out on the race course. If that is not what you are looking for, her interior is lovely and comfortable for cruising. This cruiser will beat every boat out there.

Full Details
Overview
Accommodations
This vessel has a lovely interior throughout giving her warmth yet still very bright and spacious below. She has a full athwartships V-berth forward with 2 hatches above for excellent ventilation. Next to port is the head. Privacy is obtained by closing the doors to the salon and the v-berth. Many ingenious European features including her pull out sink in the head utilizing space to the max.
Her salon is roomy and warm with teak joinery throughout. There is plenty of shelving and locker space for extended cruising. There is a settee to starboard with a removable back making for a wide berth. To port is an L-shaped dinette that will convert to a double bunk. She has a fixed centerline table with drop leaves allowing dining for 4 or more in comfort. She has not only curtains but shades as well to help filter the harsh sun.
Aft to starboard is an excellent Navigation station (larger than many on 40 footers). Her Navigation seat folds outboard allowing access to the double quarter berth with lockers and opening port. The back end of the quarter berth one can gain access to a large storage area. Her L-shaped galley is aft to port. The centerline companionway leads to the cockpit with engine access under.
Galley
Here again, the European craftsmanship has lent itself to what may appear to be a small galley yet has an abundance of storage space, great for extended cruising.

The water has always been a part of my life since learning to sail aboard a Sailfish while vacationing in Chatham, Massachusetts. At twelve, I graduated to Penguins and 420’s at the Tred Avon Yacht Club in Oxford, Maryland. My parents always belonged to the Corinthian Yacht Club in Philadelphia and I often accompanied them on cruises aboard a Hinckley Bermuda 40 that we cruised in the Chesapeake.
Understanding banking after working 12 years for Loyola Savings and Loan of Maryland, I helped navigate the purchase of a 32’ Pearson Vanguard for a friend and taught him to sail. Loving the idea of sharing my passion for boating, I joined Oxford Boatyard Yacht Sales (in what is now Safe Harbor Oxford Boatyard and Marina) in 1990 and worked as a broker and office manager for 25 years.Â
In 1993, Oxford Boatyard Yacht Sales became a dealer for Sabre and Back Cove Motor Yachts and I acquired an understanding and respect for powerboats. I worked closely with the boatyard commissioning new vessels and working as a liaison between new owners and the marina. I have an intimate understanding of the boat buying process - how to guide new owners through surveys, sea trials, registration, and documentation.Â
I love all boats and each one has its own quality. Though I would consider myself a traditionalist in boat design, I like what the new designs offer in comfort and ability.Â
Â
My husband (of 30 years) and I live in Easton, Maryland. My husband is the rigging supervisor at Safe Harbor Oxford Boatyard and our daughter, having graduated from Washington College in 2020, is now teaching English as well as coaching the sailing team at the Gunston School in Centreville, Md. She has recently come on board as the Summer Sailing Director with the Tred Avon Yacht Club.
Â
I am starting my 7th year as a broker with Brewer Yacht Sales and in addition to my office at Safe Harbor Zahniser’s in Solomon’s, Maryland I now have an office at Safe Harbor Oxford. This enables me to cover the territory from the Eastern Shore to Solomon’s Island and everything in between.Â
Â
I look forward to speaking with you and sharing my passion for boats. Let me help you find the perfect yacht or support and guide you in the sale of your existing vessel!
