SV DREAMWEAVER - JOE ADAMS 44' RACER/CRUISER
A Proven Offshore Cruiser - Ready for Her Next Adventure

Dreamweaver is a beautifully equipped, proven offshore racer/cruiser, offering an exceptional combination of sailing performance, comfortable liveaboard accommodation and extended independent cruising capability. Built to American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) standards and surveyed during hull construction, she was launched in 1993 and features a custom Australian red cedar fitout, complemented by teak in high-wear areas.

Australian Registered, Dreamweaver has had just two owners, with her current owners enjoying her for the past 30 years, including 25 years living aboard. With sailing speeds commonly reaching 10 knots on a reach and reported speeds of up to 16 knots, Dreamweaver offers impressive performance while remaining practical for extended cruising. Having travelled more than 40,000 nautical miles throughout Australia's east and north coasts, New Guinea and Southeast Asia, she is a well-proven yacht for those seeking serious offshore adventures.

As the centreboard/daggerboard version of the design with an added 3 foot closed-in sugar scoop, she makes for easy unrestricted on/off access from a marina dock, dinghy or the water.

Dreamweaver's anchoring system has been upgraded in 2026 to provide dependable and convenient anchoring.

She also features an extensive complement of upgraded and new electronic equipment to support accurate navigation and safe offshore passage-making in a wide range of weather conditions.
