1989 Sorensen 47' _{(14.33 m)} 47 Celere

If you want a beautiful, comfortable boat to go sail the Caribbean or circumnavigate around the globe this is the boat that will take you there.  It is manufactured with attention to detail and with the utmost care to be one of the best blue water boats your money can buy.  One of only three built in Taiwan.  Hull laid up in 1989 with commissioning completed in 2000. Designed by Chuck Sorensen as a well-balanced cruising yacht with emphasis on speed, comfort, and safety.  The Celere 47 has a high-performance hull design with long waterline, fine entry and powerful stern for optimum reaching and running under sail. The deck layout combines the comfort and convenience of a center cockpit and strikingly elegant lines.  The cabin trunk is faired into the foredeck creating an exceptionally clean shape and increased deck space for safe sail handling and sunbathing. The sail plan reflects the influence of offshore racing yachts.  Its fractional rig with the large main and small headsail makes the Celere 47 easy to control in all conditions.  Her mast is stiffer and sturdier than on a comparable racer of this size and does not require the use of running backstays unless serious racing is contemplated.  The large self-tailing halyard winch, jiffy reefing and lazy jacks with Mack Stack Pak make mainsail handling easy single-handed or with a light crew.  The relatively small headsail is easy to handle and quickly stowed using the furler. The boat has storage to put on board everything you need for long-term living.  This is NOT a Florida ICW friendly boat due to the 74 ft. mast height!
