À propos
If you are looking for a truly fast, safe, and comfortable blue water cruiser that can handle just about anything Mother Nature can throw at you, then Ariana is the boat for you. Ariana was constructed under the supervision of the owner/surveyor and has many custom features like horizontal stringers every 12".
The present owner has lovingly and methodically gone through the entire vessel, paying attention to every detail to ensure that she is ready to make offshore passages by just adding provisioning.
Details include good catches on all doors, drawers, and lockers so nothing opens accidentally in a seaway.
The sheer heavy displacement and stiffness ensures that she never pounds when coming off big waves, giving great confidence in the integrity of the vessel. Ariana can easily be sailed short-handed, and while there is no water maker or generator she carries sufficient fresh water to be self-sufficient for long periods at sea. The present owner raced her occasionally in offshore races with much success. He is selling her only because of his age, and he knows that when you view her you will find it very hard to find any faults in the vessel.
History of Ariana:
She had been based out of New England until 2019 and has been based out of Antigua since then. The original owner had this vessel built at Sen Koh Shipyard in Taiwan and personally oversaw construction with a surveyor in 1987; she was shipped to the US in 1989 and had never been fitted out when I purchased her in 1992. I have since owned her and have over 50,000 offshore miles with her, including 12 trips to/from New England and the Caribbean and 11 Bermuda 1-2 races where we always placed. My personal best singlehanded B1-2 race to Bermuda is 77 hours, including 100 miles of light air at the end. She is a true ocean greyhound and can outpoint most boats. The teak deck and cockpit were professionally refurbished using the TDS system with full-depth re-caulking, selected plank replacement, and screw removal and replacement with epoxy and full-depth bungs in 2021. The rudder was removed for internal inspection and professionally rebuilt with new foam, biax/epoxy layup, and fairing in 2022. She sailed from Virginia to Antigua in November 2019 and was laid up ashore in June 2020, then launched and recommissioned in March 2023. All systems and electronics are commissioned and functional.
I was looking for an offshore vessel that could support singlehanded offshore passages. Upon receiving the construction plans from the designer I knew this was the one. She was built at the Sen Koh Shipyard in Taiwan under the owner's supervision with a surveyor in 1987 and then was shipped to the US in 1989 and was never commissioned. I purchased the vessel in 1992 and delivered her to New England. She is built of solid fiberglass with fiberglass hat stringers 12" on center and 2" fiberglass floors 20" on center. All bulkheads are properly glassed in with foam margins to eliminate hard spots. There are no liners, which results in a quiet boat in a seaway. Her displacement and deep forefoot ensure no pounding and a comfortable ride offshore. All drawers, sole boards, and heavy equipment have positive fasteners and retainers for offshore passages. After over 50,000 offshore miles I can attest that she is still a great sea vessel.
