2018 Seascape 27

The 2018 Seascape 27 is a cruiser-racer designed by Sam Manuard Yacht Design and recognized as a 2015 Cruising World Boat of the Year. Built on a fiberglass hull 26 feet 2 inches in length with an 8-foot-3-inch beam, this design balances speed and stability. The boat features a swing keel with a minimum draft of 3 feet 1 inch and maximum of 6 feet 5 inches, twin transom-hung rudders, and a tiller helm. Carbon spars include the mast, boom, and bowsprit. A Mercury 4-stroke 9.9 hp outboard with a 3-blade prop powers the boat and has logged fewer than 100 hours of use.

The layout prioritizes both performance and livability. A single cabin and head are complemented by innovative storage solutions and clever design that accommodates solo, double-handed, or small crew sailing. All lines—main, jib, staysail, halyards, and kite sheets—run to the cockpit for efficient handling. A 350-watt solar panel is transom-mounted for auxiliary power.

Maintenance records document comprehensive recent work: the outboard was serviced in May 2025, bottom paint with two coats of Baltoplate race finish applied over an epoxy barrier in April 2025, and the hull and deck cleaned, buffed, and waxed in April 2025. The boat was fresh-water moored and is hull number 85, purchased new from the builder. This is a one-owner yacht with professional upkeep throughout its service life.
