Description
One of the Finest Gulfstar 50’s in the World ...
Offered for sale by her owner of 42 years!
"Delphi" is an exceptional example of the Gulfstar 50 and is widely regarded as one of the top three in existence today. Unlike most vessels of her class and vintage, she has been meticulously maintained. Unlike many newer vessels, “Delphi” is built like a tank, thoughtfully customized, truly turnkey for comfortable liveaboard life, and fully rigged for serious blue-water cruising. Whether crossing an ocean or enjoying a day sail, Delphi is an absolute joy to sail. She is a rare find and cannot be replicated at this price.
Her current insurance and survey valuations significantly exceed the asking price.
“Delphi” features a major engine rebuild with fewer than 100 hours, new standing rigging, freshly painted masts, all-new navigation and communication electronics. Her extensive sail inventory is suited for all conditions, from light air to tropical storm sails. She also includes a generous stock of spare parts for the engine, generator, and all key onboard systems, along with numerous recent upgrades and refreshed components throughout.
This vessel is 100% ready to comfortably cross oceans. She reflects a lifetime of knowledgeable ownership and care. If you're seeking a proven, seaworthy cruiser with timeless lines and modern performance, Delphi deserves your serious consideration.
One visit, and you'll understand the price and the value!
