The sailing yacht TARA BAY is a superb Scorpio 72, designed by the renowned naval architect Robert Perry and built by Ta Chaio Shipbuilding Co. in Taiwan in 1991. Originally conceived for extended Caribbean cruising, this fiberglass-hulled yacht combines robustness, elegance, and comfort. With an overall length of 21.60 meters, she offers a smooth and secure sailing experience, whether for coastal cruising or ocean passages.
TARA BAY stands out with her teak deck layout, spacious cockpit fitted with cushions and sunbathing areas, and a central wooden helm, all of which lend this ketch an irresistible classic charm. Carefully maintained by only two owners and a full-time captain, this yacht is in outstanding condition. Several major refits have been carried out over the years, including a complete paint job on the hull and spars, interior upgrades, and a full engine overhaul in 2014.
The interior of the yacht exudes warmth, featuring varnished teak furnishings and a bright, welcoming atmosphere. The large saloon includes two sofas, a generous dining table, bookshelves, a television, and a DVD player. Accommodation consists of four guest cabins, each with its own en-suite bathroom and air conditioning: a master cabin with a Queen-size bed, two double cabins with 140 cm beds, and a twin cabin with bunk beds. A separate crew cabin with private bathroom completes the layout.
TARA BAY is ready to sail and represents a rare opportunity for any enthusiast seeking a capable and stylish classic cruising yacht.
