Description

BRUCE ROBERTS NORFOLK 43, PROFESSIONALLY BUILT BY OCEANSTAR MARINE, INTERIOR FINISHED BY LITTLE HARBOR MARINE & HINCKLEY IN PORTSMOUTH, RI.

Sail anywhere with confidence aboard this rugged and strong ice-breaker!  This is a steel boat that was built right.  The construction of “Steal Away” is as solid as it looks.  She is properly insulated above the waterline and coated both on the exterior and interior.  From her stainless steel Samson posts to her oversized Maxwell windlass, she’s built to withstand anything.  Her in-mast Hood roller furling main makes her easy to sail, and her wind and solar power give her self-sufficiency.  Truly a special boat, built and finished by some of the most professional yards in the industry.  Properly maintained and coated, she is rust-free, with thick insulation above the waterline.

This is truly a no-nonsense cruising boat designed to cross oceans, not your average fiberglass production boat!
