50' Bruce Roberts 2011

OFFERS WANTED! THIS ONE OF A KIND BEAUTY NEEDS A NEW HOME!!

ANOTHER HUGE PRICE DROP!

**One-of-a-Kind Custom Ketch – Driftwood**

**Driftwood** is a truly unique 2011 Bruce Roberts 50 Custom Ketch, hand-built by the legendary Earl Rentmeester — the original owner and builder. This is a one-of-a-kind bluewater cruiser that perfectly blends classic ketch elegance with modern cold-molded wood construction fully encapsulated in fiberglass.

Her hull is constructed on laminated Douglas Fir framing with 5-ply birch plywood planking laid diagonally, fastened, and completely encapsulated in West System 105/205 epoxy, then sheathed in fiberglass cloth. The result is an exceptionally strong, quiet, and low-maintenance hull that offers the warmth and beauty of wood with the durability and peace of mind of fiberglass. The rounded-bilge canoe-body design, attached fin keel, and skeg-mounted rudder with integrated “lobster/crab trap” guard make her stable, responsive, and well-protected whether coastal cruising or heading offshore.

Step below deck and you’ll be greeted by a bright, spacious, and genuinely livable interior. **Even a 6′ person can stand tall and flat-palm the ceiling** — the outstanding headroom throughout the salon, galley, and cabins means everyone aboard enjoys complete comfort and freedom of movement. The custom layout features generous storage, beautiful woodwork, and an open, easy-flowing design that feels far more expansive than most 50-footers.

Power is provided by a reliable Yanmar 4JH4-TE 88 hp diesel engine that starts instantly and runs efficiently, giving you confidence for long passages or peaceful days at anchor. Last surveyed in June 2023, *Driftwood* is a vessel ready for her next chapter.

Whether you dream of family coastal adventures, comfortable liveaboard life, or extended bluewater voyages, this custom Bruce Roberts-Goodson design delivers timeless beauty, proven strength, and exceptional livability in one very special package. Located in Fort Myers, Florida — easy to see and easy to take delivery.

A rare find built with care and expertise by her original builder — *Driftwood* is ready to create new memories with her next proud owner.
