$179,950
Crafted with precision and care, Drift is a stunning example of timber artistry and modern cruising design. This beautifully built Kaufman 36 (36' 10" LOA) motorsailer was launched in 2014 and presents in near-new condition, professionally maintained and ready to cruise today.
Her strip-planked Western Red Cedar hull, glassed inside and out for strength & durability, is paired with a Beta 50hp diesel engine (installed NEW 2016) and upgraded B&G instruments (Feb 2025). The spacious cockpit is sheltered by a thoughtfully designed hard-top with helm-side windows for sail visibility, complemented by stainless steel dinghy davits and a wide drop-down transom/swim platform for effortless water access.
Inside, Drift offers four comfortable berths, a Webasto diesel heater for all-season comfort, and beautifully finished timber trim throughout.
A rare blend of craftsmanship and capability, Drift is fully equipped and waiting for her next adventure.
