Introducing the Joe Adams designed Passagemaker, built to go anywhere. This remarkable yacht showcases an impressive fit out with a practical layout for life onboard.. Completed in 1995, this pilot house motor sailer, designed by Joe Adams, was crafted to meet Australian survey standards. The thoughtfully designed layout includes a Queen bed aft with an ensuite, along with a second cabin featuring a double bed. Moving forward, you'll find the pilothouse, located at deck level and serving as the main entry to the lower deck. The pilothouse offers ample seating and comprehensive controls for easy manoeuvring. Descending the stairs leads you to the combined galley and saloon, and at the bow of the vessel, the third cabin awaits, featuring four comfortably-sized bunk beds and a private toilet and shower.
One of the standout features of this vessel is the impressive headroom throughout. With a minimum head height of almost 2 meters, both the Saloon/Galley and cabins boast a remarkable 2.5-meter ceiling height, providing a spacious and comfortable living environment.

This yacht has undergone a thorough survey in May 2021 and has seen recent professional improvements, a fully serviced generator with a new heat exchanger. Additionally, the gate valves, main saltwater intake, exhaust outlet piping, and engine-driven bilge pump and wash-down pump have been meticulously rebuilt and serviced. New mainsail and mizzen fitted. The hull has been stripped and repainted above the water line with Jotun Imperite, complemented by professional-grade Seaquantum ultra antifouling that offers long-lasting protection.

Don't miss this opportunity to own an exceptional yacht, purpose-built for Australian waters, offering unparalleled craftsmanship, reliability, and luxurious comfort. Contact John Schultz on or to arrange an inspection
