COMMENTS:Privately used boat only.Very well maintained, with lots of improvements and renovations over the years.Needs only minor cosmetics. VERY DETAILED INVENTORY with MAITENANCE RECORDS ON REQUEST MANY HIGH RESOLUTION PHOTOS ON REQUEST MORE ABOUT GULFSTAR 54:The 54 Sailcruiser is classic Richard Lazzara design with a powerfully raked bow. The foredeck is flush and the 4.8m beam set slightly forward of amidships. At a beam over length ratio of 3.3, she is chubby but not extremely so by today’s standards. In design, we consider a beam of 3.5 average. The sheer then angled in for a narrowish stern. Aftmost is an interesting second cockpit that I will note on later. The brightwork is above average with wide teak combings, a caprail, and handrails. Four highly polished chrome dorades shine her up. The cabintrunk rises up high with deck saloon windows and then another hard dodger and top for the main cockpit. The lines blend better than the Sailmaster series but still evoke that wedding cake look. These have rather short ketch rigs of 54′ clearance. The main is a double spreader while the mizzen is single. With her twin diesels, the Sailcruiser balances the sailing and motoring worlds. Underneath is a long fin keel of 1.5m draft. ConstructionThe hull is solid glass layed up with chopper guns with hand laminated stringers and floors. Lazzara was a tinkerer who invented a stainless steel variation of the snap shackle. He liked to pick up the new techniques and quickly adopted the chopper gun. The decks are balsa cored and by this time have solid radii around the hardware and mast. The hull-deck joint is the standard raised bulwark style. The caprail, handrailing, and combings are teak. On DeckThey have standard ketch rigs without inner forestays. At the cabintrunk the deck quickly rises up for doghouse windows and again to reach the rather high center cockpit. The main mast is keel stepped with standard shrouds mounted along the sidedecks. The genoa tracks are mounted along the wide caprail on top the bulwark style rim. The mizzen is aft the cockpit along the end of the cabintrunk. The location seems almost like it could be the end of the boat. Instead, the lines continue for a second hot tub like cockpit aft. There is a little teak door that allows access into the master stateroom. Benches wrap around the aft and sides. Here is a great place for a grill, to fish, or lounge. The cockpit way up high is easy to access from open cutaway port. The hard dodger and top make this another large area for lounging. The benches could fit 2 people laying down longwise. The sheeting on one I previewed was an odd setup. There was no traveller but blocks midboom and aft which coordinate with halyard to manage the boom. Three large winches aft made this possible for singlehanding. The bridgedeck is a small companionway sill. Down BelowYou step way down with the freeboard and high cockpit of the 54 Sailcruiser into a salon you could dance in. Headroom is excellent 2.15m plus. Here, the Sailmaster really shines with her airy headliner, light teak verneer, and deck saloon windows. The sole is nice contrasting teak and holly. Starboard is a U-shaped settee with swivel chairs to port. Forwardmost in the bow is a centerline queen berth. Portside aft is a head with separate stall shower. The main mast is keel stepped. The teak is classic with the mitered trim, cambered edges, and not a square corner or speck of formica in sight. A two step up into the saloon and then two step down aft. The walkthrough is starboardside with the galley alongside and engine access through a door. Aftmost is an interesting aft facing centerline queen berth. A separate head and shower is portside. The shower steps way down into the bilge centerline so that she doubles as a tub. Unlike many Gulfstar where the cockpit sole hangs below and restricts headroom, here only above the aft berth does the sole noticeably come down. The walkthrough maintains excellent headroom. Aft in the master stateroom is that little door to the aftmost cockpit. Engine and UnderwayThe twin diesel engines have access through a door along the walkthrough and via a hatch in the sole of the raised saloon. The engine room has good walk-in access. The hull was computer designed and according to all reports has excellent sea handling characteristics under sail and power. Twin turbocharged diesels allow good motoring or motorsailing performance under one or both engines. They make docking and maneuvering easier than with a single. The bow thruster is a worthwhile addition, making maneuvering in small Med ports even easier. The balanced ketch rig is a low 55′ height above water, ready for Intercoastal Waterway bridges and the 1.50m draft allows access to shoal waters.
