1980 Gulfstar

WHITE WIND’ is a nice example of the 47 Sailmaster; a live-aboard motorsailer with expansive and beamy living spaces. She has been thoughtfully upgraded over time for her next owner, most importantly with a new Yanmar 4JH110 engine in 2015 (~500 hours). She has also had her standing rigging replaced, new electrical wiring, new batteries, new refrigeration and stove in the galley, new rudder, and more. Her hull and decks were noted to be structurally sound as per a 2024 survey, and she is in good condition. WHITE WIND is a perfect opportunity to own a move-in ready live-aboard with the freedom for customization and cosmetic upgrades per her next owner’s preferences.

Surrounding the helm is a u-shaped seating bench.There are two winches on either side of the companionway hatch for the main and jib sheets. Aft of the helm seat is the traveler, with an additional seating bench behind that with 3 additional winches. Behind that on the transom you will find the impressive spiral ladder to the swim platform. Fore of the cockpit is the deck stored tender.
