Baltic Yachts 48 DP for sale

English

Beautifully built Doug Peterson Baltic Yacht launched in 1987. An iconic design and capable of everything from crossing oceans to sailing around the cans. Few are built better.

FURTHER BROKER’S COMMENTS:

Perhaps one of the most iconic Baltic Yachts of all time. Unmistakably a Baltic and with a style and presence that has continued through today and the very latest carbon creations producing by this prestigious Finnish custom yacht builder.

Adhering to the philosophy of ‘built the best possible sailing yacht, combing safe, easy handling performance cruising with high performance racing’, the Doug Peterson designed Baltic 48DP is a light to medium displacement design that blends superior performance with comfortable cruising characteristics. Baltic's emphasis on leading edge technology combined with the finest world reknown Finnish craftsman resulted in the 48DP as the standard bearer for a new generation of elegant performance ocean passage makers.

ALDABRA was custom designed and originally built for an Italian owner keen to enjoy serious racing, but at the same time to be able to cruise in real comfort. She benefits from a custom forward cabin arrangement with twin bunk cabins plus a further forepeak cabin with pipecots.

SPECIFICATION

CONSTRUCTION

RCD Status:

• Our understanding is that the yacht is exempt from CE Confirmity as she was in use in the EEA prior to June 1998.

Hull, Deck & Superstructure Construction:

• Balsa core fibreglass sandwich construction to the highest specification using fibreglass mat, unidirectional roving and mat/roving combination to develop an extremely rigid yet light and well insulated structure.

• All high stress areas are especially strengthened with unidirectional roving and fabmat around a low density core. There are limber holes in the floors to allow drainage to sump.

• Structural bulkheads are marine grade plywood laminated to the hull.

• White topsides finish

• Deck - Hand laid up moulded fibreglass with balsa core stiffening, insulation and reinforcement incorporated in the way of deck fittings and winches.

Keel & Rudder:

• An external fin keel, cast to high accuracy in lead with added antimony, is bolted to the hull with cast in stainless steel keel bolts.

• The rudder is a cantilevered balanced spade moulded from fibreglass using unidirectional rovings orientated in the direction of stress. The rudder blade is filled with a high density PVC-foam to spread loads evenly. The rudder forces are transmitted to the shaft via an internal aluminium alloy framework.

• The rudder stock is high strength seawater resistant aluminium alloy passing through Robalon bearings and a stuffing box which is strongly bonded to the hull. The bearings are lubrication free.
