1994 43' bruce roberts steel ketch | 43 ft., description.

This Bruce Roberts 43 steel ketch is in the water and with a little T.LC., is pretty much ready to go.  As you can see by the photos, she is very solidly built and put together with the basic philosophy of function over form.  The systems are laid out with ease of maintenance as the driving factor.  She has an impressive array of equipment and at this price, very much worth the effort to check her out. 

Located right here in the heart of paradise and home to some of the world’s most renowned cruising grounds, La Paz, Mexico, the gateway to the Sea of Cortez. Dozens of beautiful anchorages, many with white sand beaches and all with crystal clear warm waters teaming with exotic sea life.
