Remarks Sapphire is from the design board of Robert Perry. She has a very traditional look with a clipper bow and long graceful lines.
Sapphire has just undergone an extensive refit by a knowledgeable owner with no expense being spared. She has had a top to bottom paint job that includes the mast boom, deck, topsides and bottom. Mechanical she has been gone thru and is in good running order. The mizzen mast was removed to allow for a more uncluttered cockpit area and to be able to have a hard framed permanent Bimini. No part of the boat has not been inspected and upgraded to the owners high standards. Sapphire will take you wherever you desire to go in comfort and safety.
