Descriptions

Going offshore

Safety and ease of sailing was the foremost consideration when this ship builder set out to create "Western Star" this 1988 Bruce Roberts Mauritius 43; nothing was overlooked. The 1" plus thick fiberglass construction with it bulkheads and stringers creates a solid, stiff and uncompromising hull. The forward bow chain locker constructed and sealed at the bulkhead provides a watertight barrier if a collision at seas happens. The 6' full keel with 8,000 lbs. of ballast adds to the stability.

The freshly painted deck with an abundance of non-skid pads, along with the double level stainless steel cable life lines leading to a stainless steel reinforced pulpit provides security while on the foredeck.

The mast is a freshly Awlgrip painted 60' tapered aluminum mast with double spreaders, welded aluminum mast collar and mast steps leading to the top sheaves of the mast.  It's stabilized by 3/8" fore stays, back stays and lowers and cap shrouds with 5/16" intermediate shrouds, inner fore and running back stays all attached to Sta-lok terminals - considered the best in the industry.

The backstay is insulated were the HAM and SSB radio antenna are mounted and the mast has new tricolor/anchor lights, steaming/foredeck light, new spreader lights and Hella LED port, starboard and stern running lights.

Ease of sailing is accomplished with the 8 halyards - all internal in the mast, leads back to the cockpit and controlled by Lewmar halyard stoppers and wrapping around Barient stainless steel self-tailing winches.

A true-blue water sailor is always prepared to handle what might come; "Western Star" has an extensive spare part inventory for both the mast and Barient winches.

The custom high stainless steel radar arch with lifting davit for the outboard frames the transom. This arch has a unique work surface area, wind generator and solar panel attached to it. It also provides a terrific tie off for the sun awning while at the docks or on the hook.

"Western Star" has a full complement of sails: Gleason's mainsail with three reef points, 100% working jib, 130% North's genoa, 100% stay sail, 10 oz. Hood's staysail and a 1.5 oz. full cut spinnaker.

Depending on the sea and wind conditions the spinnaker has the option of being flown with 19'6" - 4' diameter spinnaker pole or the 19' - 2.5" diameter telescoping reaching pole.

The wheeled helm is attached to a binnacle that houses the depth finder, compass and knot meter. The cockpit has roomy cushioned benches with high coamings with extra-large access for the storage areas.

The engine gauges are stored behind a sliding clear door that protects the instruments. 



Living below

Descending the companionway stairs into this classic wood trimmed cabin constructed of Honduras mahogany you are struck by how this boat was design for comfortable living. To the port side is a large chart table with plenty of drawers making planning and navigating easy. Heading along the port side is a large settee with a fold over table, lots of storage behind the cushions.

Proceeding forward you will enter the forward cabin. This cabin was designed to accommodate their young son. It has a single berth on the port side and on the starboard side is a bench and fold out desk providing plenty space for a laptop.

Heading back into the main salon the starboard side has a full berth lounge with a pilot berth located above it. Passing the lounge brings you to the one step down "L" shape galley with the deep double stainless steel sink, The propane stove/oven and the freezer and refrigerator compartments.

Turn aft, to the port side, leads to the passageway to the aft cabin. The passage way contains access to the engine room. The engine room has a generous amount of space and allows access to all sides of the engine. This area has room for a generator.

Across from the engine room entry is the head. Moving back and entering the aft stateroom you discover a queen size Pullman berth, a comfy large cushioned chair with a desktop attachment - making it a great place to work on a laptop or create arts and crafts.
