Mermaid is a 2 stateroom Cruising Ketch and traditional sailing design with a modern Incased Keel. She has a spacious and comfortable below decks living area. The boat was re-powered in 2019 with a 63 h.p. Yanmar Diesel. A very popular ketch produced with achingly beautiful lines penned by one of America’s best loved naval architects- William Gardner. This sturdy, off-shore, sea kindly, and manageable boat quickly captured the imagination of many long distance sailors and became the de facto liveaboard world cruiser in her size range. Her head-turning beautiful lines  define what a classic sailing yacht should look like.
