About the GOZZARD 37
Length incl. bowsprit: 42.25'.
The Gozzard 37 is a robust, heavy-displacement cruising yacht designed by Ted Gozzard and built by North Castle Marine Ltd. in Canada, with production records indicating a build year of 1998. With a displacement of 19000.0 lb and a comfort ratio of 30.96, this vessel is engineered for stability and seakeeping rather than high-speed planing.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for serious coastal and offshore cruisers who prioritize comfort and safety over speed, particularly those seeking a cutter rig for versatile sail handling and single-handed capability.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low capsize ratio of 1.8 and substantial ballast of 6800.1 lb, the Gozzard 37 demonstrates strong offshore suitability, supported by owner reports of extensive bluewater cruising and common installations of watermakers and bow thrusters.
- Comparables:
- Comparable vessels include the Hallberg-Rassy 37 and the Tartan 37, as they share similar heavy displacement characteristics, fin keel configurations, and a focus on bluewater cruising integrity.
