Sparkman & Stephens is one of the most respected names in classic yacht design, known for creating serious offshore yachts that combine elegance, balance, and passagemaking capability. Built by Derecktor Shipyard in Mamaroneck, New York, this custom 65 reflects that pedigree in a substantial aluminum center cockpit ketch with timeless lines and true bluewater character.The Sparkman & Stephens 65 was conceived as a yacht capable of offshore racing and family cruising in equal measure. Her ketch rig, centerboard configuration, and center cockpit layout deliver versatility, confident tracking, and impressive draft flexibility, while the raised saloon, three cabin three head arrangement, and generous galley give the model the comfort and utility expected in a proper long range cruiser.This 1966 example, Circe, has spent the last 25 years in freshwater on the Great Lakes and presents as a well kept, thoughtfully updated yacht. She is powered by a 1990 Cummins 6BT 5.9 turbo diesel rated at 210 HP and benefits from a bow thruster, a full standing headroom walk in engine room, Northern Lights 8kw generator, recent Raymarine electronics, mainsail rebuild in 2024, new Harken mainsail furling in 2024, mast overhauls in 2023 and 2024, Dyneema running rigging in 2023 and 2024, hard dodger with canvas bimini, teak laid decks, and an inviting raised saloon with three private cabins and three heads.CUMMINS 6BT 5.9 TURBO DIESEL – 210HP – BOW THRUSTER – RAYMARINE ELECTRONICS – FULL STANDING HEADROOM WALK IN ENGINE ROOM – HARD DODGER WITH BIMINI – HARKEN MAINSAIL FURLING 2024 – MAST OVERHAULS 2023 AND 2024 – DYNEEMA RUNNING RIGGING 2023 AND 2024 – RAISED SALOON – THREE CABINS – THREE HEADS – NORTHERN LIGHTS 8KW GENERATOR – DIESEL HEAT – +++CONTACT NOW TO ARRANGE YOUR PRIVATE SHOWING!!!DimensionsLOA: 65 ftBeam: 16 ftDraft: 6 ft minimum / 14 ft 3 in maximumWeight: 73,500 lbTankage (Gal)Fuel: 400 (plus 35 for diesel heater)Water: 400Holding: 40PropulsionMake: CumminsModel: 6BT 5.9 TurboYear: 1990HP: 210Hours: 3738Fuel: DieselDrive: InboardElectronicsIcom IC M602 VHF radioRaymarine depthRaymarine knotmeterRaymarine chartplotterHelm repeaterRaymarine autopilotRaymarine wind speed and angleRaymarine radarRaymarine rudder angle indicatorChelsea 6 inch clockSalem barometerEquipmentBow thruster 10 inch 32 voltNorthern Lights 8kw diesel generatorKeefe vertical mount 32 volt windlass with foredeck controlForfjord 80 lb anchorDanforth D2500 anchorDanforth 12H anchorStainless steel plow anchorWilcox Crittenden anchor3/8 inch chain x 300 ft25 ft 5/16 inch chain and 300 ft 3/4 inch rodeAdditional rodesPneumatic fendersFender boardsDock linesDock polesHard dodger over cockpitCanvas biminiSail coversCockpit cover to lifelinesDouble spreader extruded aluminum main mastSingle spreader aluminum mizzen mastStainless rod standing riggingDyneema running riggingAluminum spinnaker poleReaching strutStearns boom vangTwo Barient 36 electric two speed ST primary winchesBarient 28 two speed ST winchThree Barient 10 winchesBarient wire reelHarken 44 ST winchTwo Barient 22 winchesThree Barient 28 winchesMain sail rebuild 2024Quantum genoa 2019SpinnakerMizzensailStaysailHarken drum type mainsail furling 2024Schaeffer 4100 roller furling systemDutchman flaking system on mizzenTeak boarding ladderLife ringsWhale Gusher manual bilge pump32 volt submersible automatic bilge pump32 volt diaphragm bilge pumpTwin hornsEmergency tillerThree blade feathering bronze Max Prop propellerTwin Disc reduction gearboxWagner hydraulic wheel steeringDanforth/White 11 inch binnacle compassRacor fuel filtersGroco electric engine oil change system30 amp 125 volt AC shore powerNewmar 32 12 35 amp converterLewco 3240A 32 volt 40 amp charger32 volt DC systemDedicated bow thruster battery bank with Victron chargerElectroGuard corrosion monitor gaugeWabasto DBW2020 diesel fired heating systemPressure hot water12 volt fresh water deck washdown12 volt DC cabin lights120 volt AC serviceNavigation lightsFive 10BC handheld fire extinguishersFixed CO2 fire extinguishing systemFire axeTwo fire bucketsAccommodation3 guest cabins3 headsRaised saloon with seating port and starboardSalon tableLibraryRoll down large side center windowsForward cabin with twin berthsPrivate forward head with showerMidships cabin with bunk berthsAft stateroom with twin double berthsPrivate aft head with showerGalley down layoutThree burner CNG stove with ovenMicrowaveHolding plate refrigerationFreezerIce makerStainless steel galley sinkAmple storage throughoutTeak and holly sole
