COMMENTS
RAVENCLAW, an exquisite blend of form meets function, was built by a seasoned yachtsman as his second Oyster. His objective was to create a vessel that was safe and comfortable for his large sailing family, with a shallow draft keel to allow for exploring the Chesapeake Bay and islands, while still presenting as a worthy competitor in Oyster Regattas. No expense was spared in the build, and all objectives were exceeded with flying colors. Her second and current owner has maintained and upgraded Ravenclaw without regard to cost. She has been lightly used in summer only and stored under cover for the off seasons.
Her interior features maple joinery with rich mahogany accents, beautiful teak floorboards and plush upholstery, all of which combine to accentuate the light, airy interior. Her upper salon and nav area offer expansive views via the deck saloon windows. The equally inviting lower saloon serves as a breakfast nook, reading and lounge area. Her three generous en-suite guest cabins, equipped with hideaway pipe berths for additional accommodations. New satin finished hardwood floorboards provide the finishing touch that sets RAVENCLAW apart from her sisterships. Generous crew quarters and galley forward naturally provide privacy and separation while ensuring the boat is configured for silver service.
Her spacious cockpit is outfitted to host a multitude of guests for apres-sail cocktails to spontaneous alfresco dining on a moonlit evening. A custom hard frame bimini was installed to better protect guests from the elements and improve all around visibility from the helm and seating area. RAVENCLAW is turnkey and has been immaculately maintained by a knowledgeable captain, and refit to the highest standards, she will not last long in today's market.
