Babysan III
Babysan III is a 47-foot Marine Trader ketch rig.
Built in Southeast Asia in 1977, the classic William Garden designed sailboat is a deep blue water cruiser.
With a center cockpit configuration, her beam stretches 12-6 wide, showcasing the bright, exposed teak woodwork throughout and the unfinished natural teak decks. All spars and exterior wood are varnished and bright. She is outfitted with period hardware, including antique bronze fittings and traditional wooden blocks used throughout to maintain the classic design and aesthetic. The cockpit has a removable, configurable navy blue canvas dodger. The interior is all teak, with hand-carved doors and holly floors. Below are two staterooms forward and aft, each with its own wet head, a large dining and living area, and a galley kitchen. Babysan is fully equipped with state-of-the-art electronics and equipment, is fully insured, and has all U.S. Coast Guard-approved life safety equipment. Including an inflatable dinghy/chase boat on a davit, ready to go, with a 20 HP engine and a Captain available for shots from the water.
She has been fully and faithfully restored top to bottom by Architect David Hertz and Photographer Laura Doss and has been utilized for many fashion shoots and other uses where a traditional wooden sailboat is desired.
