San Diego 1450 Harbor Island Dr. Suite 203 San Diego, CA, US

The Sceptre 41 was one of the first fiberglass boats to successfully merge a pilot house plan with a seaworthy design capable of safely cruising the world’s oceans. Her designer, Hein Driehuyzen, knew the basics of a good cruising boat: tankage low in the boat with good capacity; a design engineered to accommodate all the stores and equipment required for an extended cruise; materials and construction methods that last in an often harsh marine environment; a hull shape that is comfortable in a seaway; and a sail plan that is versatile and easily handled by a cruising couple.

Linger Longer is designed for comfort off the dock. Her pilothouse provides protection in adverse conditions, From the moment you step below you feel at home. The dining area is to starboard, with raised seating providing sightlines all around through her many windows. To port, just forward of the galley, is the nav station and lower helm.  Slightly forward of the mast and to starboard is a large head with separate shower. And in the bow the owner's stateroom provides an abundance of storage in hanging lockers and drawers, along with a private seating area.

Beautiful teak and holly sole runs throughout her interior, and the cabinetry is of a very high quality. Her spacious interior is bright and airy, with 6’5” headroom throughout.  The feeling of uncramped space is enhanced by more open floor area than you’ll find on most boats in this class. 

Under sail or power she’s nimble and responsive. Rigged for maximum ease of handling, you can take her anywhere confidently without a large crew.

This Sceptre 41 had the transom extended by the factory, making it a 43. The 43 has a longer water line, and the walk through transom makes boarding a dinghy or going snorkeling easy!

Sceptre 43 Atlantic

• By Quentin Warren
• Updated: August 5, 2002

scep43at.gif

In what may be one of this industry’s more agreeable cases of déjà vu, the Newport (RI) boat show last September unveiled a nicely turned out rendition of a Pacific Northwest cruiser already well regarded, this time in the guise of the Sceptre 43 Atlantic. She is a rework of designer Hein Driehuyzen’s popular Sceptre 41, with two feet added to the stern to increase the effective waterline length, elongate the profile and provide space for a convenient sugar scoop transom. Preserved are the earlier boat’s joyful sailing qualities, strong construction pedigree and inside steering capability.

The 41 was a worthy vessel in her own right (see Cruising World June ’86, March ’92). The notion that you can incorporate a separate steering station below and avoid stacking the profile with a raised pilothouse or invoking the motorsailer moniker is fetching, especially in a boat designed for off-season or upper-latitude cruising. The 43, even sleeker with her added length, offers the same advantage. The beauty these days is that given the versatility and dependability of modern autopilot systems, you can opt for an electronic station in the saloon in lieu of another wheel, which allows the main cabin to remain in essence an unadulterated living space when it’s not being used as a command post.

Currently Sceptre Yachts is in the very able hands of Heather Rouse and her husband Jeff, an Australian-born shipwright whose involvement with the construction of these boats dates back to hull #14 of the original 41. The hull is solid glass, the deck cored with Baltek balsa. The keel is a prolonged fin, the rudder skeg-hung with three bearings — at the deck, just above the waterline and at the shoe. Primary steering in the aft cockpit is by way of Edson chain, cable and quadrant. The entry is fine, and hull sections are fairly deep to provide for good payload-carrying ability and a bilge that’s deep enough to accept milk crates. The installation of systems is first-class, stressing accessibility, redundancy and equipment right off the top shelf.

The rig is a custom-built two-spreader keel-stepped affair with cutter capability, fore and aft lowers and a set of “fixed” running backs. The chain plates are secured mechanically to four-inch aluminum pipe that runs fore and aft on each side of the hull, carried by massive fiberglass knees.

Our experience aboard the 43 Atlantic topped off a sparkling day on Long Island Sound last fall. True to form, the vessel is solid as a rock and quite beautifully put together abovedeck and below. In a steady 12 knots of true wind she jogged along to weather at 6 to 7 knots and remained remarkably nimble at the helm for a boat so designed to tackle serious bluewater cruising. On a broad reach she slid home beneath an asymmetrical kite flown off a conventional spinnaker pole that stores vertically on the mast when not in use. The 43 is balanced, powerful and responsive.

With her enhanced teak-finished interior, she’s also elegant and inviting. Here’s a boat with a million little details that make sense and a long-distance track record that’s been proven many times over. Pricing for the upscale Atlantic series is in the $330,000-$350,000 range. Contact Heather Rouse at Sceptre (1993) Ltd, 23-12491, No. 2 Road, Richmond, BC V7E 2C3, Canada; phone (604) 241-9331.

• Additional Information

Extra Details

The Yanmar is brand new with less than 100 hours! The shaft was also replaced while the engine was out. The 20" 3-blade Max-Prop was sent back to the prop shop where it was overhauled and returned.

The boat has two battery banks consisting of 2-8D gel cells apiece. One set is dedicated to the inverter/windlass and the other is the start/house bank -- this set was new in 2009. They are both charged by two engine-driven alternators of 150 amp and 70 amp capacity. This is all controlled by the Trace inverter/charger system. She also has a pole mounted KISS wind generator currently not installed for local cruising.

Cutter rigged Custom Yachtech Aluminium spars (1992) with Rod standing rigging (1992)

The double-spreader mast and rod rigging were custom made for Sceptre by Yachttech, Canada. The mast was stripped, checked and repainted during the 2006 refit. The in-mast roller furling main is by North Sails, as are the 135% furling genoa and the hank on staysail. These sails were also sent back to North Sail's loft during the refit where they were cleaned, repaired or recut as needed, and pronounced ready for many more years of offshore cruising!

The boat features a complement of nine over-sized self tailing Lewmar winches including massive Lewmar 56 sheet winches. All lines are led aft from the mast though Lewmar spinlock line stoppers to four winches mounted on the coachroof. This allows all normal sail trim to be adjusted from the safety of the cockpit, protected behind the laminated tempered glass windscreen and dodger. The cutter rig features a highfield lever on the inner forestay to allow storage at the mast until needed. The standing rigging was designed with permanent "running backstays" to take the load on the rig when the storm staysail is in use.

Electrical Systems

12 volt battery, 4 batteries charged by: engine, wind generator, shore power

Construction

Designed to handle the demands of high latitude oceans, this proven passage maker is heavily built. The full skeg hung rudder, solid fiberglass hull, adequate freeboard, high bridge deck and fast draining cockpit are just some of the many design features that demonstrate her offshore pedigree. With an 8700 pound fin and a D/L ratio of 206 she is plenty stiff but still capable of routine 150 NM days! In Fact the previous owners saw 180 miles on more than a few occasions!

Accommodation

Leaving the cockpit through the wide companionway, you descend three steps to the salon. You are immediately struck by the amount of light admitted by the wrap-around windows. You realize at once that this is ABSOLUTELY NOT" a typical "hole in the water" sailboat main cabin.

To port is the large U-shaped galley. Designed to support long-distance passage making and extended live-aboard time, this galley has tremendous amounts of storage. It features a large Novacool refrigerator/freezer, 3-burner Force 10 stove/oven, and a double sink with both fresh and salt water foot pumps to supplement the pressure water system.

To starboard is the large self-draining hanging wet locker and the entrance to the aft guest cabin, which features a double berth, chest of drawers and a hanging locker. This cabin also doubles as a superb underway sea berth for the off watch crew!

Looking forward at the bright and airy main salon reveals the true genius behind this boat -- her designer Hein Driehuyzen. To starboard lies a raised settee with seating for 6. It's positioned high enough to allow even "vertically-challenged" crew members to enjoy the outside view. This settee also converts to an extra double berth and has many built-in storage compartments.

To port lies the nerve center of this wonderful yacht. Dual leather captain's chairs swivel to face the large nav station and electronics suite. The forward nav/helm seat also raises to allow the helmsman to comfortably helm the boat from her inside steering station. This is a wonderful and safe feature when motoring in inclement weather.

One step down and continuing forward brings you to the owner's suite. To starboard is the spacious head with its large separate shower compartment. Across the passageway is a 6 foot wall of hanging lockers and built-in drawers, a liveaboard's dream. Forward from here takes you to the queen berth with more hanging lockers and built-in seating.

The entire interior gleams with exquisite teak joinery and makes you feel like you are surrounded by fine sea-going furniture!

3 halyard winches 6 sheet winches Electric Quick windlass 3 anchors (CQR and Fortress) 250'0" of chain 300'0" of rode Avon dinghy () (Inflatable) There were custom chocks installed to securely carry the RIB on the spacious foredeck. The new heavily-built dodger mates perfectly with the thick tempered glass windshield to provide the protection of a hard dog house dodger for the crew. Heavy stainless handrails are incorporated for security when going forward in a seaway. The sugar scoop transom and quick-attach boarding ladder makes recovering a MOB with the included Lifesling that much easier.( the aft bimini frame is in place and a zipper is installed on the custom dodger to accept the fabric bimini tp but the actual fabric needs to be fabricated.correction added 03/05/10)

Nav Equipment

She features all the required nav gear for blue water sailing including SSB, GPS, VHF with DSC, radar and autopilot. All the gear is in good condition but somewhat dated. If you have money to burn she could benefit from a combined radar/chartplotter at the cockpit helm but she has logged many thousands of safe offshore miles with her present nav suite.( The Hf radio allows the use of a computer to download weather maps but she does not have a separate stand alone weather fax. correction added 03/05/10)

Safety Equipment

4 bilge pumps (2 manual / 2 electric)

The ultimate safety of this boat is in its design and construction. Having said that, she does come with a life raft (needs inspection/repacking) and a fully found ditch bag just in case!

Broker's Comments

These much-sought-after blue water passage makers seldom come to market -- when they do they are quickly gone again! The Sceptre line was built between 1982 and 1993 with North American craftsmanship, and was recognized as "not just another sailboat", but a true game changer in design and construction. Clearly influenced by his European training, the designer Hein Dreihuyzen produced what many consider the first true deck salon, while retaining the all-weather inside steering capability of the Northern European pilot house designs. It went on to be named in Ferenc Mates "World's Best Sailboats".

Each Sceptre was built to order allowing the owners to make many subtle changes to the interiors, and no two are alike. This vessel was built for a very knowledgeable sailing couple who intended to live aboard and cruise long distances. It fulfilled their every expectation for the next 12 years and thousands of offshore miles. When it was time to move on she was bought by another couple with their own dreams. Having decided before hand that only a Sceptre would do, they waited until one came on the market and purchased her in 2004. The survey revealed that years of cruising in the warm tropics had resulted in a hull with blistering. The new owners did not want anyone to touch the boat but the original builders, so off to her birthplace she went. It was decided after consultation with the builder to do a major refit, including the addition of the transom extension, resulting in the 43 that she is today. Her hull was completely peeled down to the mat and dried, and then her bottom was restored with new gel-coat and epoxy barrier coat, returning her hull to like-new condition. While this was going on the mast and rigging were inspected and refit and then repainted by the original spar manufacturer. The decks were taken down to bare fiberglass and a new more aggressive nonskid top coat applied. The owners then topped it all off with a lovely new blue paint job on the hull!

The boat was returned to the water and it became apparent that the extra waterline length was a great success, adding almost a knot to her cruising speed. The sugar scoop transom is both elegant and functional!

The following summer while still getting to know her the owners concluded that the original Yanmar was beginning to show her age, so back on the hard she went for a new Yanmar engine, shaft and stuffing box.

After all of this work and money the painful decision has been made by the present owners that they will not be leaving to pursue their cruising dream any time soon and they have decided to let the boat go. This presents an amazing opportunity for the next lucky owner.

Always remember that as important as good sailing characteristics are, many a sailor has learned that if the boat is a deep, dark and damp place to live you will soon be sailing alone!! That is what makes these boats so sought after by knowledgeable cruisersl

Factors Affecting Cost

Buying a yacht in Russia is a rather time-consuming and lengthy process that requires the participation of professional yacht brokers. Depending on the condition of the vessel, the year of manufacture, the quality of its equipment, class and size, the acquisition cost can vary greatly. There are several indicators on which the cost of buying a yacht will depend :

• Manufacturer, or shipyard - the most famous manufacturers with expensive products are concentrated mainly in European countries, and the most budget yachts are assembled in shipyards of the countries of Asia and the Middle East;
• Equipment - sometimes the internal filling is made to order, and in some cases it is standard equipment with less power, comfort, speed, etc. In this regard, the cost of ships even from one manufacturer can vary greatly;
• Ship design;
• The age of the yacht.

Also, sailing yachts for sale in Russia cost the buyer less than similar motor lengths, but yachts with a history do not always cost less than recently launched ones. Often, the previous owners are engaged in the modernization of the vessel, installing expensive additional equipment on it or customizing the yacht - in this case, the price for it increases significantly. And sailing yachts often participate in regattas, where they can take prizes and eventually acquire a name - this also leads to a rise in the cost of the vessel.

Note that the cost of a yacht in Russia will be significantly different depending on the length of the vessel. You can always check the final cost of the vessel with a yacht broker, and since this market is very lively, the price can change even during the time during which you pick up a yacht.
