Fresh off a successful 2024–2025 bluewater voyage from Vancouver to Mexico and back, this Fraser 42 is now on the market following an extensive offshore refit. The vessel carries a deep inventory of equipment, spares, electronics, safety gear, and redundant systems, offering flexibility in how a purchase can be structured. This is not a stalled bluewater project. Distant Star has completed multiple offshore campaigns over her lifetime, with different owners, and has just returned from another major passage. That voyage was followed by an uncompromising refit exceeding six figures, addressing the systems that matter most for serious offshore use. Built by the Dekleer Brothers in Richmond, British Columbia, this 1974 Fraser 42 reflects the strength, balance, and seaworthiness that have made the design so respected among offshore sailors. For buyers seeking a proven cruiser that is ready now, Distant Star stands apart. Currently moored in Ladysmith, BC, with a 55 foot slip that may be transferable.
