Strong build, long waterline, and fin keel make it perfect for island cruising. The CSY 44 is regarded as one of the finest sailboats ever made!

This is the classic CSY 44 Pilot House Ketch. prized for its solid construction, spacious interior, relatively shallow shoal draft, and smooth easy sailing you only get with a ketch, this yacht is ideal for extended cruising to the islands.

According to SailBoatData this yacht has a Comfort Ratio of 48.30!. In an April 2019 survey conducted by Cruising World, the CSY 44 was voted as #11 of the top 40 sailboats ever made.

The main sail has a traveler. There is a Harkin rolling furler for the jib. A large solar panel array is included. A water maker is also included.

Access below is through two hatches, one leads into the aft berth and the other into the main cabin.

The Pilot House model has an aft cockpit and an interior steering station for staying dry while island hopping. This two-cabin CSY 44 features wheel steering, self-tailing jib winches, binnacle compass, electric windlass with delta anchor and rode, pressurized water, three burner stove with oven, Garmin radar, B&G chart plotter, two marine heads with showers, water heater, two air conditioners, and an inverter.

The aft cabin is very large, with its own head. The bow cabin will accommodate two and has easy access to the forward head. The main salon is huge with two bench seats which can also serve as berths, the steering station, and a spacious galley area.

Condition

This vessel was knocked off of its stands by hurricane Ian. There is some relatively minor damage to the fiberglass ridge at the rub rail where it leaned against the next boat. Other than that it does not appear to have significant storm damage. The way it rested against the sloop next to it minimized the damage. It should be inspected but it came through the storm as well as it could for a boat knocked off its stands. The boat was brought to the yard under its own sails and power. The owner states that the Yanmar engine operates as expected and the sails have some life remaining. The hull appears to be solid. It needs to be sanded, pits filled, and repainted. There is some damage to the fiberglass ridge where the rub rail is located in a couple of places. The rub rail probably needs to be replaced. The standing rigging appears to be in good condition. There are no burrs or obvious issues on the rigging. The sheets and lines probably need to be replaced. All of the woodwork on the boat needs to be refinished, including both hatch doors. From inside, there are some small cracks in the fiberglass roof in several places but there were no signs of water leakage. The interior is in fair condition. Cushions and upholstery probably need to be replaced. There are no obvious leaks and the interior is dry. The engine, wiring, and tubing all look to be in good condition. The engine compartment is clean. The condition of the operating systems is unknown and should be inspected. It may be possible to run the Yanmar engine while in the boatyard but most of the systems probably can not be checked out while on the hard.
