Description
Steel construction extended Bruce Roberts Spray auxiliary Bermudan cutter rigged sailing cruiser with clipper bow, twin chined hull with long keel. The vessel is laid out with a foredeck, ide decks, accommodation forward beneath a low coachroof, a wheelhouse just after and a self draining cockpit. 

 

The boat was completed and launched in 2005. The hull was built by steel fabrication company B & M Fabrications under the supervision of the owner who insisted on it being very heavily built (4mm thk deck, superstructure & topsides, 9mm thk bottom plates & 40mm thk stem & keel baseplate). The owner then fitted out the hull to a high standard with insulated hardwood surfaces to all areas. All equipment being new except the 3.4 litre BMC diesel engine, which I believe was re-conditioned.  

 

All in all a very comfortable and spacious boat. Unfortunately, the boat has never left the marina since and while some maintenance has been carried (Hauled out 10 years ago and painted) the essential cycle of repainting a steel boat has not been adequately achieved and the boat is visually poor externally.

 

The boat obviously would need hauling out and a complete re-paint as a bare minimum, but would make an ideal liveaboard for someone with the enthusiasm and time to do it. With the mast and rigging removed it achieves an air draft below 2metres, so inland water use is a further option. Returning it to a coastal or blue water yacht would take so much more, but still achievable to the right person. Original survey, RCD compliance documents and invoices are available.

We have many photos of the construction and the completed interior of this beautiful Roberts 434 built by Earl Rentmeester

 

FOR SALE:

ROBERTS 434  50' /15.24m

 Professionally CUSTOM BUILT in Wood / Epoxy by experienced craftsmen.

This yacht was stretched 7% plus a three foot bow sprit added to get 50’ long.  This 434 was professionally built By E.C. Rentmeester

This yacht was stretched 7% plus a three foot bow sprit added to get 50’ long.  This 434 was professionally built By E.C. Rentmeester custom boat builder and only the finest materials were used in construction. 

Our goal was to construct an ultra safe ocean going vessel.  This blue water cruiser was intended to be sink proof right from the start.  This is our reasoning for choosing the cold molded wood construction. 

Also, many navel architects claim a cold molded wood yacht to be stronger than a glass boat.  The wood hull will be floating needing only a small additional material to be sink proof.  This additional floatation is provided by the entire hull being insulated with 1” Styrofoam (R5.56) from the water line up. 

The final floatation will be provided by 2 large inflatable recovery bags: one in each of the state rooms to be inflated by scuba tanks.  This inflation system is not yet installed.  In case of an emergency, who wants to abandon the yacht and be tormented in a life raft for weeks, when all the needed supplies are onboard the yacht.  The next issue we studied was the pilot house.  In case the pilot house would be hit by a large wave broadside in a bad storm, we wanted to improve it’s strength.  We accomplished this by lowering the pilothouse roof, giving the yacht a sleeker more racey look. 

Next we chose to use .5” inch thick tempered glass on the smaller pilot house windows.  We also engineered our own mounting system for the glass to greatly increase the side impact strength of the pilot house.  There are no water leaks what-so-ever in our mounting system.  Additionally, we increased the scantlings of the stringers slightly to account for the 7% increase in length.  The plans called for three panes of glass for the windshield.  We added a 4th pane for both looks and strength.

This is an almost new yacht which was used very little; in fact, the forward one third of the yacht has never been used and is in mint condition.  The asking price is $225,000, which is 35% less than the wholesale price of the parts.   You cannot build your own yacht for this price and you will need to invest years of your labor.

Centennial  SPRAY 38 - round bilge steel.

Hi Bruce,

Now, unfortunately the time has come when I must put my loved Kermit for sale, and I would be happy to have him at your brokerage page.

Spray certainly need no further presentation, but I must say that it is a fantastic design in every way. She sails extremely well and stable and can be loaded into virtually any amount.


Kermit is a round bilge steel Centennial Spray 38, built in Sweden (finished 2009) to the highest standard when it comes to both materials and construction and by the best craftsmen. The result is a top class interior, made of solid oak and pine and in a design that matches well the boat in general. The boat is intended for blue water cruising and living onboard. I enclose two pictures but there are many more.

The boat is lying in Stockholm, Sweden. For more information and a more complete description don’t hesitate to contact me at Sverker.H@spray.se  or +46730555526.

Asking 1 995 000 SEK (about 220 000 Euro), but will listen to any offer!

Best regards, Sverker Hagberg 

PS. I would be happy if these two pictures could be used in the ad. More pictures to be send in next couple of mails. DS.

Hi, Bruce! Our lovely R-38 Ketch - Donna's Diamond - has been sold.  Thanks for helping! I think her new owner is going to love this boat, as we did.  She is sound and ready to go!

Once again, thanks for your help!    And thanks for one fantastic boat! Regards Dennis Fria

Hi, Bruce!   Well, the time has come for us to sell our much beloved Offshore 38B  Ketch.  Donna's Diamond was launched in 1992 and we have sailed her to the  Bahamas from Texas twice, plus lots of offshore races and other fun.   She is a superb vessel and we love her dearly.  It breaks my heart to  sell her, but I need to do so ASAP.  Your son Dane has been a friend and a huge help through the years, and I helped  him sell at least one BR design several years ago (I used to own  Mustang Island Yachts, but recently sold the company).

Well our boat has sold and I need to post this on the Bruce Roberts' sight under our 28ft Spray SOLD!  Thanks.  Pat Muller

Boat is lying in Wisconsin and has only been used in fresh water.  She is currently sitting on a triaxle trailer which will convey with the boat.

The Spray 28 is a wonderful, trailable pocket cruiser.  She has the space and stability of a much larger boat with the ability to go most anywhere.  Thousands of Sprays have been built world wide and their owners love them.  If you are considering a true, go-anywhere, small cruising sailboat you must consider the Spray 28, and “Gypsy” is a fine example.

Hi Bruce,  My late brother’s boat has sold.  Thanks so much for all you kindness and consideration during a very trying time for us.  You are one in a zillion, you know.  Thanks heaps. Felicity ...   Felicity Smith

HELP - BOAT FOR SALE - CAN YOU HELP!

Hi there Bruce, this is drawing a REALLY long bow but I wonder if you can help us at all. 

I live just outside Brisbane, my sister-in-law in Windhoek Namibia.  My brother died suddenly a few months ago.  His UK registered ketch Siobhan is lying at anchor in Luderitz.  My brother had just left Cape Town having refitted the yacht for extended cruising and was on his way up the coast to pick up my sister-in-law but then his liver failed and he died.  The problem is I am in Australia, Antje knows nothing about boats and we can’t get the boat back to Cape Town because the weather windows just aren’t there at this time of year.  There are no brokers in Namibia and the yacht is in a big open bay.

This is probably just silly writing to you like this, but I thought I would give it a shot, we feel so lost.  Kind regards, Felicity Smith.


Bruce,

"Clarity" is finally sold and my wife is happily investing the proceeds in our new home!  "Clarity" will winter-over in Deale, MD; then she will sail to her new home in Muskegon, Michigan.

Please remove from your website, or mark it sold if you prefer. I want to thank you for your consistent responsive support throughout both the building and more recently, the process of finding her a new home. The entire adventure has been fun, rewarding, and fulfilling for me. I am and will remain a true advoCATAMARANe of your designs, your service to your
followers, and of you, Bruce.

If I can ever return the many favors, perhaps in the way of an experienced advoCATAMARANe, I would consider it an honor and privilege. Also if you and yours ever travel through western North Carolina, Teresa and I would feel honored to have you here for a layover.  By the way, I would also like to make you aware that the professional broker I worked with, Mr. Nick Dykert of Denison Yacht Sales in Ft Lauderdale, has become quite knowledgeable about Clarity, about steel, and about, perhaps most importantly, the human psychology of boat building. He has mentioned that he wants to pursue specialization in similar 'project boats'.  It occurs to me that the two of you should be aware of each other, for future reference.  For what its worth, I found his work to be professional, attentive, trustworthy, consistent, and thorough. Happy sailing always! Bill Russell
