S/V Phoenix is a Seychelles based 2015 Wauquiez PS47 For Sale By Broker. Responses to inquiries may come from a broker who is representing the owner as a fiduciary. This owner requires financial settlement only. No trades.
Since the early 1960s Wauquiez has been producing high-quality blue water capable yachts. A broker, when searching for a safe voyaging platform to take offshore with his family, found another Wauquiez model, the Amphitrite, and was immediately impressed with the build quality and accessibility of systems. Phoenix, built in 2015, was the last PS47 produced before the builder moved to the PS48 model. Both the interior and exterior of Phoenix have been well thought out for functionality offshore as well as at anchor. The original and only owner has painstakingly outfitted this boat for serious blue water voyaging and has already logged over 48,000 miles. If you are looking for a pretty boat to enjoy on the dock plugged into shore power, this is not the boat for you. This vessel has been set up for voyaging long distances, and her configuration reflects this. She is not set up for dockside comforts but is prepared for self-sufficient voyaging. Her systems have been upgraded to support extended passagemaking and offshore sailing. The cockpit is well protected and the deck layout is optimized for cruising. She is equipped for secure anchoring in remote anchorages. Phoenix is nothing short of a thoroughbred offshore workhorse that will take you anywhere in safety and comfort. Her spacious aft cabin with a centerline queen berth is a rare find on aft-cockpit boats. A large aft head features an enclosed, separate shower. The walkthrough galley to port offers ample counter space, making meal prep both at sea and at anchor a breeze. The raised saloon is well lit thanks to the large fixed ports, making this pilot saloon warm and inviting. The navigation station in the saloon to port also offers access to all electrical controls. Forward, her guest cabin to starboard features hanging lockers and over-under berths. The guest head to port also features a separate shower. Finally, forward is the VIP guest cabin with a queen-sized berth and ample hanging and storage lockers.
The sellers have recently completed a major refit in Thailand, and the vessel is en route to the Med for spring 2026.
