For Sale: 1987 PAE Mason 44 Sailboat For Sale

[tomeclipse]

My 1987 PAE Mason 44 Eclipse is for sale. This is a beautiful and very clean boat, both inside and out. This boat is unusual in that it never has had teak decks and was built with minimum exterior teak. The bottom does not have any blisters or growth. Eclipse has been regularly updated and meticulously maintained, remains in “like new condition”, and is well equipped with equipment and electronics for long-range cruising. Most of the boat systems have been upgraded and replaced with the result that Eclipse remains an exceptional Mason 44 and is ready for a circumnavigation.

Been a real fan of these boats i would say respectfully that your price is on the high side.

I am also a real fan of the PAE Mason line of sailboats. They are very sea-kindly and relatively fast. I typically do 200 mile days on windy passages. Unfortunately my age has finally caught up with me and I need to get out of sailing.
