Caliber 47 Sailboats For Sale

exterior

The Caliber 47LRC is presented in listings as a purpose-built long-range cruiser intended for serious offshore sailing. Construction is described as solid hand-laid fiberglass with a watertight collision bulkhead and a skeg-hung rudder, features that are cited explicitly for their contribution to structural integrity and directional protection in demanding conditions. The design emphasis in the available descriptions is on safety, autonomy, and robustness for extended passages.

Tankage and propulsion details in the listings underscore the model’s long-voyaging capability: a stated fuel capacity of 277 gallons and a water capacity of 225 gallons, and an advertised ability to cross 1,400 nautical miles on a single tank of fuel. Propulsion is identified as an efficient horizontal shaft drive paired with the manufacturer’s Smart Fuel System™, and listings note slide-out access for the generator. Owner-maintenance items reported in listings include a new generator and full AC throughout the boat, signifying systems attention for liveaboard comfort.

Below decks the Caliber 47LRC is described with a handcrafted teak interior, a gourmet galley, spacious staterooms with en-suite heads and separate showers, and abundant storage throughout. The listings also call out practical maintenance features such as easily accessible chain plates for inspection, and multiple design elements aimed at liveaboard use and comfortable long-term cruising. These interior and serviceability attributes are presented consistently across the available adverts.

Rigs and deck arrangements in the listings reference the Convertible Cutter Rig™ as part of the boat’s offshore toolkit, reinforcing its intended use for passagemaking. One example vessel, named Gaujira in a listing, is noted as having been cruised and lived aboard for many years and described as well cared for by her owners, which aligns with the model’s positioning as a liveaboard-capable, long-range cruising yacht. All statements above are drawn from the provided listings without extrapolation beyond the cited features.
