Live aboard or sail the world in this Spencer 51 Ketch. Spencer Boats LTD in British Columbia built custom sailboats to owners specifications and their 51/53s were designed for long range cruising. If you visit the Spencer Yacht Owners Group website you will find owner's tales of many cruises. Thirty of the 51 & 53 models were built and here we have an excellent example of why they are still so popular. Mary Baker is a three-stateroom ketch with beautiful lines and plenty of room. Each stateroom has a double berth with the forward stateroom being a v-berth. The salon is large, open, and tall with lots of natural light. The salon has new cushions, flat screen television with DVD, 100w stereo, and air conditioning. The salon is comprised of settee, dinette, chart station, and galley. The full service galley features refrigerator/freezer, 3-burner stove with oven, and stainless steel double sink with pressurized water.
