Located in the clear blue waters of St Croix, USVI. The Gulfstar 54 was designed and built by Richard Lazzara, founder and designer of Gulfstar Yachts.  Gulfstar commenced building yachts in 1970.  Lazzara and Gulfstar designed and built quality power and sail boats from 36 to 68 feet in length.  The 54 is known as the Gulfstar sailcruiser.  Gulfstar built 23 Sailcruisers between 1985 and 1987.  This particular Gulfstar was built in 1987, and benefits from Gulfstar's many years of design and construction expertise across both power and sail boats.  Lazzara Yachts is still in business in Florida, now producing impeccable mega-yachts. The Sailcruiser is a medium displacement, twin engine, center cockpit ketch.  The current owners have removed the mizzen and now sail her as a sloop, though the mizzen is available.  The 54 is characterized by her deck saloon design and fully enclosable fiberglass hardtop with large windows.  This 54 has a beuatiful dark blue hull with contrasting white deck and coach house.  This Sailcruiser also stands apart due to its extensive, custom built, stainless steel "power tower" and dinghy lift system, designed and installed by the current owner.  This includes (2) D400 wind genrators & 1000 wts of solar.  The 54's interior offers a very large saloon, three generous staterooms and two full heads each with seperate shower.  Her interior teak woodwork and cabinetry is of very high quality.  All compartments have beautiful, satin finished teak, with teak and holly sole throughout.  Her joinery is first rate, furniture quality, with custom rounded corneres and superior finishing.
