Little Harbor 51

discusses

The broker says this 1996 Little Harbor 51 pilothouse is one of four built, two of them with a 6-ft draft. This one has a centerboard and draws "13 and 1/2 ft" with it fully down. He says she goes upwind incredibly well.

The broker says everything is led aft, so the boat is set up for single-handed sailing: reefing the roller-furling main with electric winches, the outhaul controls and the hydraulic backstay controls are all in the cockpit.

He lists a big anchor on 300 ft of chain, a secondary anchor, a rebuilt windlass motor and a 72-ft tall mast, and calls the solar array, lithium batteries and generator a long-distance cruising setup.

The broker's favorite feature is the pilot house. He says you can navigate and control the autopilot from there out of the weather, and it has a 16,000 BTU air conditioner. Teak grates drain, so you can come in wearing foul weather gear.

The galley sink has access to 400 gallons of fresh water, the fridge and freezer are deep, and the saloon has two pipe berths with lee cloths for a secure place to sleep in the ocean.

Behind a door off the passage is an engine room with a Yanmar diesel, a workbench and tool storage. The broker says it is more of a garage space and that the generator can be reached from under the pilot house bench on sliders.
