Overview
Charlotte is a classic, hand-crafted, ketch built by Donald McBet in White Rock, BC, to Fred Petersen’s design. Launched in 1976, she was constructed with durability and timeless character in mind — from red cedar strip plank construction to her clipper bow and counter stern. With continuous upgrades, including a rebuilt diesel engine, generator, windlass, and major electrical overhauls, Charlotte is a proven offshore cruiser with decades of maintenance and pride of ownership behind her.
She’s currently moored in the desirable Brentwood Bay, BC, with the option to transfer a sought-after mooring and dinghy spot at a five-star marina and spa. Included with the sale is a 2022 12.5’ inflatable tender with a 2020 Mercury 20HP 4-stroke outboard.
