1982 Falmouth Cutter 22

The Falmouth Cutter 22 is a fiberglass sailing yacht built in 1982 by Cape George Marine Works in Port Townsend, Washington, based on naval architect Lyle Hess's design. Though modest at 30 feet overall with an 8-foot beam, the hull is robustly built with substantial thickness, engineered for genuine bluewater cruising. Power comes from a 10-horsepower Yanmar diesel, capable of moving the boat at around 6 knots. Hull number 29 of only 40 examples produced, this boat represents the classic offshore cruising design that defined a generation of smallship voyagers.

Below deck are straightforward cruising accommodations with one head fitted with an English Lavac and gravity-dump holding tank. A Garmin GPSMAP 742 chartplotter provides navigation capability. Interior and structural details remain consistent with the original factory specification, allowing for a direct and uncluttered cruising environment.

Recent maintenance has been extensive and thorough. The hull was hauled in February 2026, where the bottom received two-and-a-half coats of Trinidad hard-bottom paint over fifteen coats of barrier-coat epoxy. A new bowsprit was fitted, finished with two coats of West System epoxy and painted white. All seacocks were replaced with new Groco fittings. The brightwork—teak and other varnished surfaces—was refinished with five coats of Cetol. An Engel's Japanese cooler was installed, and all canvas is new. A 25-pound CQR anchor and Achilles dinghy are included.
