58' Bruce Askew Steel Pilothouse Expedition world cruiser

Crusoe is a special yacht who is bound to serve her new owners well. She is our bench mark for a state-of-the-art live aboard yacht built to serve a couple who are both adventurous and want the comfort and safety that is possible in a strong modern sailing yacht. Easily sailed by a couple, electric hydraulic winches, Leisure Furl in boom main and mizzen, and both head-sails are Kiwi Reef Rite furlers.
Docking is easy with a powerful bow thruster, and duel helm stations.

Crusoe's hydraulic lifting keel and rudder allow you to anchor next to multihulls in shallow water anchorages. At sea the 4.5 ton keel offers great stability at 10 feet in depth while at anchor the keel swings to 1m draft.

Crusoe was built to New Zealand highest marine specifications for offshore charter, and designed for the ice. Crusoe has one inch steel plating bottom and with the keel and rudder up she will sit on her own bottom. This is especially important if a grounding occurs as all you do is lift the keel, back off and you're on your way again!

Crusoe has 3 ensuite cabins each with its own Vacu flush heads and showers, all fitted to the higest standards with marble counter tops.

Large capacity fridge and freezer.

6KVA Northern Lights gen set with low hours.

This is a high quality vessel.
