ESCAPE THE CRAZY

IF NOT NOW, WHEN? - WHILE YOU CAN ~~

PACIFIC HIGH is a one-of-a kind, long range cruising cutter ketch built by Stuart Boat Works, Fl. drawn by Naval Architect Allen Ericson. Ted Hood + Hood Sailing Systems designed and built the spars, standing rigging and sailhandling systems. PACIFIC HIGH was referred to as “Hood’s Electric Boat”. She was designed with all sail handling leading to her handsome, protected pilot house. With those systems she has been cruising and racing from the Adriatic to the Caribbean in comfort for years, often by a crew of two or even single handed. The designers and builder understood the “watershed change” yacht design was going thru in the 80’s. Powerful, broad, flat sections in the hull carried well aft, result in low heal angles, yielding 8 to 10 knot speeds from PACIFIC HIGH’s 60’ waterline.

The commission’s key characteristics included serious offshore strength, comfort, excellent visibility, ventilation, and afocus on speed. She was built over a 2-year period with an unlimited budget. Her decks and topsides are cored with“Airex”, regarded still by the industry as one of the best coring materials. PACIFIC HIGH’s decks remain strong, stiff, andlight.

With a cutaway keel, skeg hung rudder and 2” thick FRP fiberglass at and below the waterline, she is as strong as anyproduction boat built in the last 4 decades. Her oversized rudder post and stainless-steel 2½” shaft ensures her strengthis carried through the propulsion and steering systems.

There are many custom hand-built features about this beautifully sculpted yacht interior that must be seen to beappreciated, including a brass fireplace in the main Salon, bathtub, 14 opening ports and 7’6” headroom. This is a trulycustom, comfortable home on the water that can be cruised all over the world gracefully and safely logging 220+ nm perday.
