Launched in April 2004, M/V Evening Star is the ultimate Cape Horn. Built under the supervision of Peter Sever of the Cape Horn Trawler Corp. and by A.F. Theriault, M/V Evening Star is the culmination of all of the Cape Horn modifications including interior layout by renown megayacht designer Jane Plachter-Vogel. This 2nd generation Cape Horn 65 has it all, including azimuthing Z drive, active fin stabilizers, bow thruster, flybridge, walk-around engine room, full side decks, and loaded with the finest of equipment.
Cape Horn trawlers were built to be the safest luxury yachts and have proven themselves to be worthy of their goals in surviving hurricanes, groundings, and even a knockdown in the tsunami in Phuket. "First in Safety, Safety First" is the company motto that has been substantiated.
The original owners lightly cruised New England from 2004 to 2009. The second owners were experienced sailors who enjoyed cruising from Newfoundland to Bahamas. The 3rd owners owned this CH hull # 15 for over 7 years. The current owners have enjoyed cruising the Pacific Northwest and Alaska for the past 3 years. Due to personal circumstances, the owners are ready to hand over this ready-to-go yacht to her new owners.
M/V Evening Star offers a unique opportunity for the cruising couple who wants a luxury expedition yacht where safety and redundancies are paramount.
