If you know custom cruising boats you know that this is a rare offering. If you are not very familiar with custom cruising boats, well then you are in for a real treat. We would like to introduce to you our offering of a Van De Stadt Samoa 48 called Panta Rhei. She is a thoroughbred blue water cruising yacht, built to the highest standards of Dutch craftsmanship. She is a tremendously safe off-shore passage-maker with a very well protected cockpit (hard dodger and “wrap around” cockpit coaming) and rugged non-skid plates on all walking surfaces. Panta Rhei can easily be handled by a small crew (or even single handedly) despite her substantial sail area. She has been designed, built and fitted out for long distance cruising, with over-specified equipment, simple systems for easy maintenance, large autonomy, luxurious accommodation and exceptional comfort at sea.

Panta Rhei is an aluminum Van De Stadt Samoa 48 commissioned in 1997/98. She was designed by Van de Stadt & Partners and built by Van Toledo Netherlands & Van Mameren interiors. In 1939 Van de Stadt designed the Valk, a plywood (called “hetchout” by the supplier at the time) daysailor still popular today in the Netherlands. Van de Stadt quickly became a highly regarded pioneer of sailing yacht construction, especially when it came to the materials used. Van de Stadt also earned repute when he designed the 12 meter racer Zeevalk. Eventually Van de Stadt designs were available for homebuilt sailboats, the first plans sold in 1952, but designers all over the world did not give repute to Van de Stadt’s ideas until years later. Panta Rhei is an all aluminum hull that is roundbilged and sports a fin keel and a balanced spade rudder, based on the design that Van de Stadt applied years ago. Long story short, you are looking at an excellent blood line here and the investment will be worth it in so many ways.

There is really only a hand full of “serious” offshore shore sailing vessels. These “serious” vessels are designed to go anywhere at any time, meaning high latitudes, if Greenland, to Antarctica, to rounding the Great Capes, is what they do. Robust construction, water tight bulkheads, flush decks, hard dodgers, safe and comfortable watch stations, workable/functional and livable interiors, all with 200 plus mile days are average, and not to mention load capabilities to stay out there. The list is long.

Those “serious” offshore shore vessels are a far and few. If they are the \"Bermuda Series consisting of the Apogee and Bougainvillea Series\" which are Chuck Paine’s famous series of light-displacement, long-waterline, ocean-voyaging yachts. They all feature collision bulkheads for safety, extensive tankage, high performance rudders, and an attractive pilothouse between cockpit and lower accommodations. Many years ago, there was a rendezvous for these designs held on some Atoll in the South Pacific. A dozen showed up. Boats of this caliber will set back an individual one million dollars plus for a used one.

Our next example in this pedigreed design, would be our good friends, Evans Starzinger and Beth Leonard’s “Hawk”, sister ship to our wonderful offering, Panta Rhei. Everything Hawk is, Panta Rhei is, except Panta Rhei is finished off to more yacht standards. Hawk is industrial. Simply put. Beth and Evens Hawk has sailed successfully further than 99% than most of us ever will. Just google bethandevans.com and read their adventures, their choice of the boat they themselves choose, plus go to their photo album is see their Hawk in action. They are the real deal. There is rhythm and reason in their decision/choice of what the proper offshore sailing yacht is and should be.

The so called today’s modern world cruiser would have a difficult time getting to St. Michaels on the Chesapeake Bay. And if they are really adventurous, they do Caribbean 1500, with much needed repairs after just some 1700 miles. Our offering is a different animal. If your vision is a comfortable safe quick passage to anywhere, all from a proven design, then our Van De Stadt Samoa 48 called Panta Rhei is your only choice. She will not disappoint and is everything that we say that she is. We are your choice for Bluewater boats.

Panta Rhei received a major refit in Holland in 2011 (worth over $200,000) and is ready to go cruising. And it’s not just the hull, deck and rigging that have been given much attention. The interior will please you with many classic ship like stylings and touches. Meticulous care and preventative maintenance has been given to this vessel by her owners, and it shows.

Panta Rhei is one heck of a sailing vessel that took her last owners to every corner of the North Atlantic Ocean safely. They sailed with their two young children! This could be your chance to own an awesome, proven bluewater cruising boat. Give us a call if you want to talk bluewater passagemaking.

ACCOMMODATIONS

The Van de Stadt Samoa 48 is a wonderful three stateroom voyager suitable for a family or for your crew on a circumnavigation. With two staterooms aft and a wonderful owner’s stateroom forward this is a beautiful sailing platform. Not only that, Panta Rhei was outfitted with the lovely interior finish and custom features right from the beginning. She has the classic teak and holly sole and teak trim interior that makes us all feel all warm and nautical inside. Starting forward, the owner’s stateroom has a large V-berth, a cushioned dressing bench, much storage below and above the V-berth and good standing room and floor space. There is a large head and shower adjoining.

Aft of the forward head is the wonderful salon with a luxurious U-shaped settee for dining. The varnished dinner table can comfortably seat six and the blue upholstered settee cushions will keep you comfortable for hours. Across from the dining area is the sit down navigation station, the ship’s office. Here you will find all the necessary navigation equipment, a large pull out chart drawer, lots of storage and a comfortable and secure nav seat with a back support. To starboard and aft of the nav station is the spacious L-shaped galley. First and foremost this is a secure galley in a seaway, and it is located near the companionway to access the cockpit. There is plenty of storage and all amenities.

Aft of the dining area to port next to the companionway is the head which is wonderful while underway as it is near the companionway in the area of comfortable motion. Aft are the two guest cabins to port and starboard. These aft cabins are quite roomy and have good headroom in the forward portion of each cabin above the standing and dressing areas of the berths. Cabinets for storage are found in each cabin. These cabins make wonderful sea berths while underway and offer wonderful cabins for kids if you are a family with a voyaging dream.
