A stretched Sagitta with 6'2" headroom, twin helms and a solar-fed house bank — walked through by the owner himself.
Some boats are best understood from the inside out, and that’s exactly how this short walkthrough of S/V Peregrine unfolds. She’s a 1994 Woods 33 Sagitta — a 30 Sagitta Stretch drawn by Richard Woods and built by Heritage Manufacturing in South Africa — and the tour begins at a detail you won’t find on every cruising cat: a second, lower steering station.
Added at the suggestion of a previous owner, the inner wheel works through a push-pull cable that turns the engines, and as the narrator points out, it earns its keep in tight spaces. For anyone who has tried to thread a multihull into a crowded marina fairway, that’s a meaningful bit of practicality rather than a gimmick.
Light, air and headroom
Below in the bridgedeck saloon, the emphasis is on livability. Leather seating wraps a drop-down table that converts to a comfortable double berth, and the tour lingers on the number of opening ports — cross ventilation from port to starboard, which matters enormously in warm anchorages. A factory-era modification raised the coach roof to give full standing headroom of 6’2″, a rarity on a boat of this length and one of the more compelling features of this particular hull.
The galley is described as large, and its systems run off a solar array feeding four new golf-cart batteries that the panels keep charged and topped off. In the starboard hull, a berth enjoys three opening ports plus a small aft port, with another opening into the cockpit — again, that theme of air moving through the boat.
