Description

~MiSCHKA~ ex HALUA + ex SEEADLER was built at the Burger Boat Company in Manitowoc, Wisconsin in 1966, oneof the very best aluminum yacht builders in the world. Sparkman & Stephens yacht designers were in their prime,designing for the titans of that era. She was designed as an ocean-going auxiliary motorsailor cutter ketch, built to thehighest standards of quality and craftsmanship. The build pedigree of this yacht is stellar!

Between 2014 and 2016 the vessel was

rebuilt

at Lauderdale Marine Center, completely gutted/sandblasted to barealuminum, surveyed; about 30% of the tanks and bottom were re-plated. Awlgrip/Awlcraft paint systems were appliedthroughout.

Every

piece of equipment

inside the yacht was replaced

with top-of-the-line products. The deck housewas removed and was artfully redesigned to a flush deck house center and aft cockpit profile above and at her beautifulsheer line using sections of the original S&S Burger structures.

The interior configuration was transformed into anexpansive, wide-open, light-bathed, 2 bed/2 ensuite bath

modern bamboo, beach house cruising villa. She can reachanywhere there is 5’6” of water with the centerboard up (15' with centerboard down) and 64’ of air draft (Bahamas & ICWFriendly).

~MiSCHKA~ spent the next 7 years after her

rebuild

in the Exumas with her owner loving living aboard, mostly off thegrid. She

was chock-a-block with toys, family and friends.

The owners are building their dream house now with more kidson the way.

~MiSCHKA~ is not for every sailor, but she is a thoroughly transformed modern classic for visionary adventurers lookingfor a big, bold and distinctive yacht that can travel almost anywhere ~~

    SUMMARY

    ~MiSCHKA~ has an impeccable build pedigree! She was

    REBUILT

    between 2014 and 2016 using the finest equipmentand materials available. ~MiSCHKA~ is a classic yacht with thoroughly modern equipment, materials and greatcontemporary style.

    She will need some attention to her decks, need bottom painted and some interior detailing. This being said, where canyou find a pedigreed 70'+ sailing yacht with all this new equipment and a thoroughly fresh modern interior for under$500,000 USD!

    This liveaboard yacht broker who has logged over 40,000 sea miles was skeptical at first, until I stepped aboard andrealized how big and beautiful and reliable she is, and what a completely cool interior with all this new stuff! She will makesuch a fantastic long range liveaboard cruising yacht that can tuck into many anchorages that many 50'ers cannot!

    ~MiSCHKA~ appeals to the gutsy, experienced sailor that has no intention of being tied to a dock (or does, and wants todo it big) and is looking for big adventures. Take a deeper dive into these specifications, then please equire further if~MisSCHKA~ turns you on. Thx. Enjoy ~~
