Description: Bruce Roberts Offshore 44
Proven center cockpit bluewater liveaboard cruiser. Original builder and owners from 1994 launch. Recently returned from its second Panama canal transit. This vessel has cruised extensively, Indian ocean North and South, South East Asia four years, Red sea suez canal, Mediteranean, Caribbean, USA East coast, Atlantic ocean twice and Pacific ocean twice. We have been full time liveaboards since launch and very rarely go into marinas since we are self sufficient. Large aft cabin, V-berth forward and two aditional berths. Force ten stove, but we mainly use an induction cooktop, air/watercooled refrigeration. Four Solar panels with 1200w output, 2000w Victron inverter, two Victron 30amp solar controllers.
