She is a custom 65' steel George Sutton-designed pilothouse schooner.

Descriptions
Every detail on the interior of this boat has been finished to highly luxurious standards. From the cherry and mahogany to the beautifully tiled showers, the galley, which has more space than many household kitchens, the washer & dryer, and more...you will be cruising in comfort and style.
Upon entering the pilothouse, there is a comfortable settee which can fold down into a bed large enough to sleep two. You have a complete 360-degree view though large pilothouse windows, and it's an easy setup for trading on and off watch on an overnight passage.
Stepping below, the large galley is to port and the nav station/laundry room is to starboard. The washer and dryer are full-sized. Leading aft beside the galley is a walkway to an oversized workshop, which is a craftman or mechanic's dream come true! See the photos! The aft cabin has two double bunks, its own private head and shower, and can provide guests with luxurious quarters all to themselves.
The salon is equally luxurious, with custom barstools, intricate woodwork, a hutch for storing crystal and glasswear, and a large salon table which can lift to make a dining table or lower to b a coffee table.

Broker's Note
When I first saw "Sir Creeper," I stopped and stared. She is that kind of boat--an impressive beast of a cruising schooner, with steel-toughness but also grace and beauty. This would be the boat of my dreams if I were cruising around the world with my family, and I hope that it can be the boat of YOUR dreams.
