Kelly Peterson 44

Kelly Peterson 44, a classic true blue water cruising yacht, (commonly amongst the top 10 yachts most suitable for World Cruising) proudly a exclusively for sale with DBY Boat Sales.

This 1979 classic blue water cruising yacht, rigged as double spreader cutter is a renowned world cruiser capable of crossing oceans in both safety and comfort.

Australian registered HARMONICA II O.N. 860166 has never been chartered and was fully imported into Australia in 2012 with all documentation, taxes, stamp duty and GST paid upon arrival.

Large inventory and equipment list along with a 2013 Beta engine showing low hours and immaculately presented, comprehensive sail wardrobe, 2023 rigging and extensive deck gear ideally set up for either couple, family, or solo sailing.

HARMONICA has cruised the USA/ Caribbean, Pacific Ocean, as well as circumnavigated the world.

Since owning her HARMONICA the current owners have spent years cruising the East Coast of Australia. She is now ready for a new owner and her next adventure and is literally, turn key.

Renowned for their impressive sailing performance, true blue water capability, spacious but cosy interior, its little wonder why the KP 44 has remained so sought after with over 300 built, many completed circumnavigations.

This classic centre cockpit is very roomy, high & dry well above the waterline, protected from the elements on all sides. The forward companionway leads to the saloon, dinette, galley, navigation station, head, and large private V berth. A second companionway in the cockpit leads aft into the very spacious owner’s stateroom ensuring complete privacy from everything forward and also providing an enormous catchment area for fresh air flow. The private aft queen sized bed is one of the most sought after cabin configurations around. An on-board laundry with a small 240 Vac washing machine is located here along with additional wet locker. There is a pilot (sea way) berth in between the two cabins which is snug and very suitable for skipper’s whilst on passage watch, close to all electronics and the cockpit access.

Main engine room access is obtained from two large removeable doors on the starboard side and via the large deep lazarette locker on the port side.

The galley is well appointed and sea friendly in its layout and U-shaped security.
