BROKER'S NOTE

Robert H. Johnson, the designer and owner of Island Packet Yachts, designed the Endeavour 43 Ketch. His designs were known for their focus on safety, comfort, and seaworthiness, making them popular among sailors interested in long-distance cruising. The Endeavour 43 Ketch was known for its classic and elegant design. It featured a full keel and a ketch rig, which provided good stability and sail-handling options for offshore cruising. The boat had a spacious interior, making it comfortable for extended cruising and living aboard.

 

The history of the Endeavour 43 Ketch is intertwined with the history of Endeavour Yachts and Robert Johnson's design career. Here's a brief overview:

  1. Founding of Endeavour Yachts: Endeavour Yachts was founded by John Brooks in the 1970s. He aimed to produce quality, well-designed sailboats that catered to cruising sailors. The company's first major design was the Endeavour 37, also designed by Robert Johnson.
  2. Design by Robert Johnson: Robert H. Johnson, the designer behind many Island Packet Yachts, designed the Endeavour 43 Ketch. His designs were known for their focus on safety, comfort, and seaworthiness, making them popular among sailors interested in long-distance cruising.
  3. Production and Features: The Endeavour 43 Ketch was known for its classic and elegant design. It featured a full keel and a ketch rig, which provided good stability and sail-handling options for offshore cruising. The boat had a spacious interior, making it comfortable for extended cruising and living aboard.
  4. Production Years: The Endeavour 43 Ketch was produced during the 1970s and 1980s, which was a time when many sailors were looking for boats suitable for extended cruising. These sailboats gained popularity among the cruising community.
  5. Endeavour Yachts Legacy: Endeavour Yachts built a range of sailboats, with the Endeavour 43 being one of their most iconic models. The company's commitment to quality and traditional design elements contributed to its reputation in the sailing world.
  6. Ownership Changes: Like many boat manufacturers, Endeavour Yachts went through various ownership changes over the years. The company eventually closed its doors in the late 1980s, which marked the end of the production of the Endeavour 43 Ketch and other models.

Today, the Endeavour 43 Ketch is considered a classic cruising sailboat, and many are still sailing in various parts of the world. Due to their solid construction and cruising-oriented design, they remain popular among sailors looking for comfortable and seaworthy vessels for extended journeys.
