1982 Vagabond 47

The Vagabond 47 is a 47-foot fiberglass sailing yacht built in 1982. Its classic design and solid construction have made it a favored platform for extended cruising. The hull measures 13.42 feet at the beam, and power comes from a single 90-horsepower Ford Lehman diesel engine.

The yacht accommodates two cabins and two heads, providing functional living space for extended passages. Interior layout reflects the thoughtful design the model is known for, balancing cruising practicality with comfort.

Recent updates have modernized the electrical systems. A three-kilowatt Victron inverter and 120-amp charger were installed alongside a 900-amp-hour lithium battery bank. Three 415-watt solar panels and a Renogy MPPT solar controller were added in 2024 to support extended time away from shore power. Additional recent work includes a Balmar engine alternator regulator installed in 2024, an inner forestay added in 2023, and mizzen chainplate replacement.
