1995 Caliber 47LRC

The Caliber 47LRC is a proven offshore cruising design from an American builder known for sturdy, seaworthy construction. This 1995 example measures 49 feet overall and carries a 75-horsepower Yanmar diesel engine with approximately 4,962 hours of service. The boat is rigged as a cutter with a standard mast, standing rigging, and sails all replaced around five years ago, ready for extended passage work. Fuel capacity totals 277 gallons across three tanks, with 225 gallons of water storage—both substantial for long-range cruising.

Below deck, the boat offers two cabins and two heads arranged for comfortable cruising. The galley features generous counter space and robust refrigeration, while the saloon includes a large fold-down dining table and an expansive navigation desk suited to offshore navigation. The interior is designed to support extended time away from shore facilities.

The boat carries extensive cruising equipment: a Spectra watermaker, life raft, EPIRB, single sideband radio, and diesel heating system. Navigation electronics are primarily older Raymarine units that function properly. A Northern Lights generator is installed and runs but requires repair. The windlass was upgraded and includes 300 feet of chain. A dinghy with 15-horsepower Mercury outboard, davits, bimini, and dodger round out the inventory. Spare engine parts and zincs are onboard.

The sail plan includes a full-battened mainsail and 110 percent furling genoa on the headstay, with a 130 percent genoa, genniker, and self-tacking staysail available in storage.
