This 1977 44′ CSY Walkover is a tough, heavy-built blue water cruiser. In fact, Cruising World Magazine included the CSY 44 in its list of the 40 best sailboats of all time. CSY boats were built to unusually high standards of strength, durability, and quality consistent with Lloyd’s design and boat building requirements. Uniquely, CSY did not use wood lamination in its construction; the only wood used in these boats is heavy laminated structural stringers, bulkheads, and interior furniture. The CSY hull is up to 1.5″ of solid fiberglass-reinforced resin with 14 dual layers, and the deck is also solid fiberglass.
The current owner has sailed s/v Gentoo down the east coast of the United States to the Rio Dulce, Guatemala, then to Honduras and has taken annual trips to Belize and back to the Rio Dulce, where she is currently located awaiting her next adventure.
The ballast/displacement ratio is 38.3 percent, indicating good stability under harsh weather conditions. The shoal draft is approximately 4’11”, and the boat has a fin keel with a skeg-hung rudder and a cutter rig, which is ideal for offshore cruising.
This vessel is powered by a rebuilt Perkins 4-154 62 hp diesel engine and carries 100 gallons of fuel and 400 gallons of fresh water.
Both the exterior and interior of this vessel are spacious with abundant storage throughout. The center cockpit has plenty of seating and storage compartments and comes with a dodger and bimini. The interior has 6.7 ft of headroom with many opening hatches and classic bronze portlights. The galley includes a stove with an oven and there is hot and cold pressure water. Both marine heads have separate holding tanks and there is a separate shower forward. The cozy aft cabin is accessed by walking through the cockpit.
Both the interior and exterior are in need of some cosmetic detailing, but with some TLC and upgrades, s/v Gentoo has the potential to safely and comfortably take you anywhere you wish to go. If you are looking for a solid blue water cruiser, s/v Gentoo is certainly a good investment.
