Soft Parade is a 1975 Challenger Ketch, American built of heavy duty fiberglass construction. Her long keel with internal lead ballast, wide beam and shallow draft (4.5') make her a seakindly, solid cruising boat, capable of crossing oceans or taking her crew to Catalina for the weekend. Her spacious cabin feels like a much larger boat, and can accommodate six adults comfortably. With a well-appointed galley, the cook will keep the crew happy as well. Equipped with radar, depth, GPS, and autopilot, she is capable of sailing in all weather. Deck improvements include custom stainless steel grab rails and a full stainless steel pushpit surrounding the cockpit. Replacing the cockpit lifelines with stainless tubing increases safety while providing a secure platform should larger solar panels ever be desired. With a large diesel engine, 3 bladed prop, and plenty of fuel tankage, she can motor sail at 6.5-7 knots burning less than a gallon of fuel per hour. The windvane steering is removable for coastal cruising and can be replaced with stainless steel davits to carry a dinghy and outboard. When heading offshore again, just stow the dinghy and davits, replace the steering gear, then set off across the ocean! Dodger in photos is included, but currently not installed because the canvas needs to be updated. I have the old canvas for use as a pattern. Dinghy and outboard are not included in the sale. She is for sale locally so I may end listing early. Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE
