About the CT-47 CTR
The CT-47 CTR is a robust cutter-rigged cruising yacht designed by Kaufmann & Ladd and built by Ta Chaio Shipbuilding Co. in Taiwan during 1983. With a displacement of 29395.0 lb and a comfort ratio of 36.41, this vessel is engineered for stability and seakworthiness, though the exact total hulls built remains unverified in available data.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for experienced coastal cruisers and offshore adventurers who prioritize a stable, heavy-displacement platform with the versatility of a cutter rig for varied wind conditions.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low capsize ratio of 1.71 and a high displacement-to-length ratio of 248.85, the CT-47 CTR demonstrates strong inherent stability and resistance to capsizing, making it well-suited for bluewater passages.
- Comparables:
- Comparable vessels include the Hallberg-Rassy 43 and the Tartan 4400, as they share similar heavy-displacement characteristics, fin keels, and a focus on safe, comfortable offshore cruising from the same era.
