Introducing Rubaiyyat — a striking 63-foot motorsailer built by Manila Shipbuilders in 1976, showcasing timeless craftsmanship and true blue-water pedigree.

Constructed with a classic wooden monohull using exotic hardwoods, Rubaiyyat embodies the elegance, strength, and character of traditional shipbuilding. Built in Manila, Philippines, she has sailed extensively throughout the South Pacific and around the world, proving her seaworthiness and ocean-going capability.

Powered by a Detroit Diesel 4-53 engine (80 HP) with approximately 1,500 hours since a rebuild in 2003, she offers dependable and efficient performance. The vessel currently needs a new starter, and the transmission requires attention, presenting an excellent opportunity for an owner ready to add value.

Below deck, Rubaiyyat offers a warm and functional layout with:

Three private cabins

One additional space suitable for use as a fourth cabin or office

One well-appointed head

Her interior is inviting and well-suited for extended cruising, liveaboard life, or adventure sailing. Equipped with four solar panels (75 watts each), the vessel is capable of remaining off-grid for weeks at a time — ideal for long-range exploration.

The wood hull was professionally rebuilt in 2002, and the boat has been lovingly owned and maintained since 2003 by an adventurous cruising couple. She has been well cared for, has excellent bones, and offers many more years of life and opportunity ahead.

With her size, layout, and character, Rubaiyyat holds strong potential as:

A blue-water cruiser

A liveaboard

A unique charter or floating BnB concept

For sailors seeking a CLASSIC, capable, and character-rich motorsailer, Rubaiyyat represents a rare and exciting opportunity.
