XBOAT ref :6011.I am selling my Gilbert Caroff design, this CHATAM 60, a cruising cutter, is an integral aluminum sailboat (1.10 m / 3.20 m draft), built one-off.
Owner's words:
"Solid, with its 16 millimeters of aluminum bottom, twin diesel engines, 3 heating systems, everything is designed for navigation to distant destinations.
The boat underwent a refit in 2017/18.
Thanks to its completely enclosed and insulated wheelhouse (sliding watertight door), the steering position is perfectly protected. With its two rudders and pivoting centerboard, the CHATAM 60 sits flat and allows for anchorages with its shallow draft. This CHATAM 60 is a well-equipped second-hand boat that has seen little use.
A boat designed for expeditions to the ends of the earth".

"This CHATAM 60 ready to sail is a unique boat with its insulated wheelhouse and 16mm bottom.
It handles without problem with 2 crew on board, even solo.
The maneuvers of halyards and reefing lines are done at the foot of the mast, in complete safety.
The comfort on board is exceptional and the watch during navigation from the wheelhouse is unparalleled."
