1993 Custom Baraka 46

This 1993 Custom Baraka 46 is a cold-molded wooden cutter built to Chuck Paine design principles, embodying the philosophy of a serious offshore cruiser. At 46 feet in length with a 14-foot beam, the yacht carries the heavy displacement and seaworthy hull form characteristic of blue-water sailboats designed for extended passages and challenging conditions.

The raised deckhouse provides excellent visibility and headroom throughout the practical interior layout. Three cabins and one head accommodate a cruising family or liveaboard arrangement. A Westerbeke auxiliary engine supports the sailing rig, allowing controlled maneuvering and self-sufficiency in various wind conditions.

The boat has been actively cruised through the Caribbean and Panama, demonstrating its offshore capability in demanding waters. Recent updates have been made to systems and equipment, supporting continued operation as either a cruising platform or liveaboard home.
