Perfect Love Boat | 47' Vagabond 2016

Complete Refit!  Everything was replaced or rebuilt between 2009 and 2017; only the fiberglass hull and deck are original.  Perfect Love is offered in as-is condition, subject to a survey. 

The Vagabond 47 was designed by William Garden as a long-keel offshore cruiser and was built with heavy hand-laid fiberglass, which was fashionable in the '70s. Perfect Love was built by Blue Water Yacht Builders Limited of Taiwan in 1975. 

The current owners purchased the vessel as a derelict in 2008 and transported her to Cincinnati, Ohio, where she was stored on the hard. She was fully stripped and rebuilt, with only the fiberglass hull and deck shell remaining from the original. The hull and deck underwent necessary fiberglass repairs and were reinforced at high-stress points such as chain plates and through-hull fittings. The entire hull and deck topsides were stripped down to bare glass. After applying a new, heavy layer of gel coat, she was primed and painted with a two-part epoxy system (Interlux Perfection). The hull below the waterline was then recoated with five layers of epoxy resin, five coats of barrier paint, and three coats of ablative bottom paint. A new rudder was also constructed. 

The new ash and teak interior was professionally built, surpassing the original in both appearance and quality. New bulkheads, chain plates, engine mounts, and mast compression posts were manufactured and installed. All deck and hull attachments are reinforced with heavy stainless steel backing plates. The engine, shafting, propeller, and generator are all new and professionally installed. The fuel tanks, made of heavy-duty aluminum, and the potable water tanks, crafted from food-grade stainless steel, are both new. The electrical systems (AC and DC), as well as the fuel and water plumbing, were professionally installed. 

There is no wood on the yacht’s exterior; all wood-like materials are synthetic, UV-resistant PVC-based products that require minimal maintenance. The yacht features aluminum masts, Schaefer roller-furling booms, stainless steel standing rigging, and running rigging. The sails (main, mizzen, staysail, genoa, and code zero) were made by Mack Sails of Stuart, Florida. 

A full suite of Raymarine electronics, including a hydraulic autopilot, has been installed. Mast-mounted cellular and Wi-Fi antennas provide internet connectivity to the onboard wireless Local Area Network. 

Perfect Love was featured in the March/April 2018 edition of Good Old Boat Magazine (page 30). 

All equipment and systems are fully documented, including complete wiring diagrams (every wire is labeled) and plumbing diagrams (fuel and water).
