Bruce Roberts Bober TS-434 for Sale
The Bruce Roberts Bober TS-434 for sale is a proven offshore cruising yacht lying in Licata. Built in 1995 by the respected Benjamins boat builders, specialists in metal yachts, she offers true bluewater capability. Her steel construction and cutter rig reflect a design focused on safety, strength, and long-distance sailing. As a result, she suits serious cruisers and liveaboard sailors.
Bruce Roberts TS-434 for Sale – Design and Construction
She features a white and light grey steel hull with a non-slip steel deck and superstructure. Benjamins boat builders are known for high-quality metal yacht construction. Therefore, she delivers excellent durability and structural integrity. In addition, her long keel and skeg-hung rudder improve tracking and protect key components. This design ensures confident offshore handling.
Engine and Cruising Systems
A 40hp Mercedes OM636 diesel engine provides reliable performance. Recent updates include a new diesel filter and impeller. Moreover, a Silent Wind generator and Eco Sistems Splash 25 watermaker enhance onboard independence. Solar panels and shore power support her 12v, 24v, and 110v systems.
Tankage and Range
She carries approximately 400 litres of fuel, 300 litres of water, and 80 litres of holding capacity. Consequently, she supports extended cruising with fewer stops. This capacity suits offshore passages and remote destinations.
Rig and Sail Plan
Her cutter-stay rig includes aluminium spars and stainless standing rigging. The sail inventory features a slab-reefed mainsail, furling genoa, and staysail. As a result, she remains versatile and manageable in varied conditions.
Accommodation and Comfort
She offers berths for up to six across two cabins and the saloon. The layout suits families or long-term cruising. In addition, heating and air conditioning maintain comfort in different climates.
Deck Equipment and Extras
An electric windlass and Bügel anchor with 60 metres of chain simplify anchoring. Meanwhile, a sprayhood and bimini provide protection. A tender with a 6hp outboard, serviced in 2024, ensures easy shore access.
This Bruce Roberts TS-434 for sale combines expert metal construction with proven offshore performance. She is ready for extended cruising or full-time living aboard.
