The Westsail 42 is one of the most well respected ocean cruising boats in the world. Designed by Bill Crealock (Pacific Seacraft 37, Dana 24), when Walter Cronkite needed a quality cruising boat, he settled on a Westsail 42. Apart from its beautiful lines, canoe stern, well designed layout, spacious engine room, and countless other wonderful features, the Westsail 42 is above all else, bullet proof. The ketch rig with club footed inner forestaysail gives a huge variety of sail configurations making the boat easy to sail shorthanded ( I regularly single handed her in the SF Bay). A spacious boat, we bought her in 2005 and lived aboard happily with our two children. Now with 4 kids and a cross country move, it is time to part ways.

UPDATE

Alex Dorsey has purchased Rocinante. I am so glad she went to a real sailor who will take her all over the world. follow his progress on his website: http://www.projectbluesphere.com/
