Stewart 34 Built by John Rae

A unique opportunity to own a stunning boat.

Built in Glenfield, Auckland, by the famous John Rae in 1983, Pendragon was the only Stewart 34 built by this master boat builder, and is unique in the pantheon of this famous class.
Her quality and finish are truly unique, and she was launched weighing well under the class legal 4.5 tons. Still owned by the family who commissioned her, the time has come to pass Pendragon on to new custodians.

Built of three layer Kauri and then Dynal sheaved, requiring minimal maintenance, her gorgeous interior belies her cheeky turn of speed. The Stewart 34 class was decades ahead of the rest of the world in terms of design and construction, and there is a very good case to be made that Pendragon is the best example ever built. John Rae's expertise is all through this boat, and the care her owners have taken of her is very evident.
With recently renovated teak decks and serviced engine, Pendragon is a perfect twilighter or cruiser with space below that is astounding for a boat of her size.

As the overall IRC Winner of the Sydney Gold Coast Race in 2005 (and second the previous year), Pendragon could still be a weapon offshore if that's your cup of tea - for me, I'll have a glass of champagne on her uncluttered decks while streaking ahead of her plastic competitors on a wednesday twilight!

Berthed at the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia in Rushcutters Bay, inspections are highly encouraged. Pendragon is an absolute glamour and will continue to turn heads for at least another 40 years.
