Accommodations The configuration of PHOENIX is a raised saloon amidships, owner and guest staterooms aft, and crew quarters, sail locker, galley and dinette forward of the main saloon. PHOENIX has accommodations for six owners and guests in the three aft staterooms, and for three crew forward in two cabins.
On deck are two cockpits: a center steering cockpit with one helm station centerline aft and a second protected helm forward port, and an aft owner’s cockpit with access to the owner’s stateroom.
Soles throughout are teak and holly, joinerwork is teak, and the headliner is Ultrasuede. The wall coverings are in light, neutral colors with teak trim. Natural light and ventilation are excellent from dorades, opening ports and hatches, and augmented by 24 volt fans and air conditioning throughout.
Crew Quarters From the forepeak aft, PHOENIX has a stand up sail locker/utility room. The washer/dryer unit is installed to starboard, across from the crew head. The crew head has a stall shower, sink, and electric toilet. The port crew cabin has a double lower berth and a single upper berth. The starboard crew cabin has a large single berth. Both cabins have ample storage space.
Aft of the crew cabins is the galley with a crew dinette to starboard seating four.
Saloon Next aft is the raised saloon, with six large windows providing plenty of light and great visibility. Two windows port and starboard are opening, providing cross ventilation. An L-shaped settee is to port. The large varnished hi-lo table can seat eight for dinner, or, when lowered, serves as an attractive cocktail or gaming table. Drawer storage in the saloon has been redesigned and reconfigured for custom china and cutlery storage. The entertainment center is aft to port, and equipment is described below. A lounge area is starboard, and has a settee and full wet bar with sink, refrigerator, and custom glass and bottle storage. Next aft to starboard is the navigation station.
Aft and down four steps from the saloon are the owner and guest staterooms, and the entrance to the engine room.
Guest Staterooms The two guest staterooms are next aft. Both have twin berths with a bureau between them, and drawer and hanging locker storage. Each also has an ensuite bathroom with stall shower, vanity, and electric head. The port head also has access from the central passageway, and serves as the day head.
Master Stateroom All the way aft is the full width master stateroom, with a queen sized bed to starboard, and to port a three-quarter bed and settee. The forward facing desk is at the bulkhead. Storage is commodious in drawers, shelves, and hanging lockers. At the aft end of this cabin is the master bath port and starboard, with a passageway between leading to the aft cockpit. The port side has a large shower compartment with seat and a basin, and the starboard side has another basin, and an electric toilet. The large cockpit hatch provides excellent ventilation.
Cockpit The center steering cockpit of PHOENIX is large and very comfortable, and is accessed from deck both port and starboard. The canvas dodger and bimini provide protection for the entire area. To starboard is a refrigerator/freezer for drinks; to port is the protected helm. The large centerline drop-leaf table can seat up to eight for alfresco dining. Settees port and starboard in this cockpit have been widened for more comfortable seating, and also to accommodate outdoor sleeping. The second steering wheel is aft of the table, so the helmsman can have contact with guests.
Recessed into the aft deck, the aft owner’s cockpit is very private, and has settees port and starboard, with a filler to allow a double bed for outdoor sleeping or sun bathing.
Galley The galley is full-width, with a crew dinette seating four to starboard. Across to port is the U-shaped galley, with propane stove outboard, double stainless sinks facing aft, and refrigerator forward. Counter space and storage are excellent. Equipment includes:
Microwave oven Kitchenaide dishwasher Four burner propane stove w/oven Double stainless steel sinks Splendide washer dryer combination unit

Deck & Hull The hull is strongly built in fiberglass with an Airex core above the waterline, except in higher stress areas such as engine beds, through hulls, rudder post, etc., where it is solid fiberglass. The deck is fiberglass with a Balsa and marine ply core, and is overlaid in teak. The solid glass rub rail is integrally molded, and the main centerboard is fiberglass with a bronze shoe. Trimming centerboard aft is solid bronze.
In 1995 a deck refit of PHOENIX was completed. At that time a new 9/16” teak deck was laid, all ports were removed and chrome plated, and all deck hardware including pulpits, stanchions, chocks, Dorade guards, cleats, tracks, bimini and dodger frames was replaced and upgraded to 316 stainless. In 1996, PHOENIX underwent an epoxy coating on the bottom to prevent blisters.

Sails and Rigging PHOENIX is cutter rigged, with Hood hydraulic furling: in mast on the main, and roller furling on the head sail. Rod rigging and the hydraulic backstay are by Navtec, and most deck gear is by Harken. In 2000 the mast was removed, serviced, and painted, and all standing and running rigging was replaced. Spreader lights are dual, to illuminate both deck and rig.

Remarks CHARTER: The Little Harbor 75 is an excellent model for the charter trade. Her characteristics are sought after by a large part of the market.
PHOENIX, (ex ROBIN), one of five yachts in the Little Harbor 75 line, was originally built for and owned by the designer, Ted Hood. She is one of only two in this line that has a raised salon and walk-in engine room. The Little Harbor 75 is well known for being a luxurious cruiser handled by a small crew, with spacious, practical accommodations. In addition, Phoenix’s Stoway rig, the two helm stations, two cockpits, and two draft options thanks to the centerboard, provide incredible flexibility for maximum cruising pleasure. At 7 feet with the board up, shallow water cruising is delightful, while with the board down at 14’ and the trim centerboard aft in use, the sailing performance that won the Bermuda Race in 1982 is enjoyed. Phoenix has a great combination of qualities to enjoy cruising anywhere in the world in comfort and luxury.
