Custom Bruce King 1992
Overview
About this vessel
No where on the planet can one find an iconic vessel of this caliber at this price!! 25 years ago Ferenc Màtè, author of the International Best-Seller, "The World's Best Sailboats Vol 1 & 2" was in search of a new boat. His final choices were a Hinckley or a Swan, but at a chance encounter in a remote BC Cove, Màtè fell in love with the stunningly elegant, beautiful and fast 41 foot custom ketch that world-acclaimed naval architect Bruce King designed for himself. That boat, "Warm Rain II" is now available. For those wanting the very finest of craftsmanship. Be ready to turn heads and accept endless compliments with the most beautiful boat in any harbour. She is now back in the water after spending a cosy Winter in a heated shop where her Shipwright/Caretaker meticulously refinished the exterior brightwork and teak decks. The finished result is spectacular. Her cold molded hull of Port Orford Cedar was completed by Master Shipwright, Jim McClelland and is paired with the finest of finishing materials. Further interior refinements have been completed by the skilled crew at Jespersen Boat Builders. A 2020 survey reports: "This is an exceptional execution of a beautiful classic design from the board of a well known designer. The interior is well planned and cabinetry is of superb quality......the vessel does not show its age." A modern underbody (fin keel, spade rudder with skeg) provides for great performance with directional stability. Fitted with new Main and Genoa, "Warm Rain II" is ready for inspection by appointment only, please.
