Classic Yacht Brokerage Comments on the Saltram Saga 40
The Saltram Saga 40 was designed by Alan Pape, a well-known Cornish naval architect and owner of boatyard Curtis & Pape. He is recognized for many successful boats, including the Sagas and the Ebbtides, both of which are proven offshore cruising yachts.
The Saltram Sagas were built by K.R. Skentelbery & Sons Ltd of Plymouth. This particular boat is one of the last built; the hull was delivered to the commissioning owner in 1990. The owner completed the fit-out of the interior and systems, first launching the boat in 2006. Since then, the boat has undertaken a couple of cruises around the UK but has generally been used very little.
The current owners are only the second owners and are experienced marine professionals who worked on the boat before taking her on a voyage to the west coast of Scotland. Due to time pressures, they will not be able to use her for the extended cruising they originally planned, so she is being put up for sale.
The boat was fitted out by the first owner over a 16 year period and completed to a very high standard. The interior joinery is all teak, including solid teak sole boards. It is clear the owner's passion was the project, perhaps more so than actually going sailing, which is why he only carried out a couple of voyages after the launch.
The Saga 40 is an ideal blue water cruising yacht and represents superb value for money compared to the more expensive but comparable Hallberg Rasseys and Malos. The hull is very strongly built with a heavy lay-up of GRP. She has a long keel with a high ballast ratio in the external ballast keel. Internally, the hull is supported by enormous structural floors across the centreline, which is not common in most GRP yachts. She has terrific volume and, in many ways, makes an absolutely superb offshore cruising boat, whether for a family or a lone sailor.
2023 survey available.
