Description

Wellington Yachts, designed and built by Bill Wellington in Jacksonville, FL, are known for their robust construction. The hull of these boats are lined with foam that provides full flotation buoyancy and makes this a buoyant, dry, well insulated and quiet yacht. These boats are very capable offshore sailors and offer spacious living quarters.

This second owner Wellington 44 has been in the same family for over thirty years. The boat was mainly sailed locally and to the Bahamas and has low hours on the repowered Yanmar engine (estimated to be under 1000 hours). Her systems are aged but she’s a well built boat and offers a blank slate for someone looking for an affordable 44 ft center cockpit that they can customize to their needs.

Please check out the immersive tour to virtually walk through this boat.
