CONSTRUCTION: Sugaree was designed by the famous Laurent Giles and Partners, extremly well built and heavily rigged for performance ocean cruising. She has 3 Atlantic crossings too her credit. Every aspect of her construction implies an intention to far exceed accepted standards of strengh and quality. Under sail she combines tremendous stability with powerful performance in a well balanced hull. Solid,hand laid fiberglass hull is white; three full length stringers per side for extra stiffness and strength; 3" high solid bulwarks aroud deck for safety; teak rubbing strake; fiberglass decks overlayed with glued-on teak deck planks(avoids thousands of screw holes and potential leaks); vessel heavily built to Lloyd's specifications with certification placard in lazerette; all ballast internal (no keel bolts to worry about); long fin keel with skeg mounted rudder; keel stepped, heavy duty Procter mast; rugged Mathway steering system( torque tubes and bevel-gear boxes). Unlike most center cockpit designs, the cockpit is recessed into the deck and does not sit up high. Coupled with the low cabin height, this results in a center cockpit vessel that actually has an attractive profile and provides more comfort(less motion) than higher cockpits.
