1997 Shearwater Schooner 45

Designed by world renowned yacht designer, Dudley Dix, "Moonbeam" was built in Cape Town, SA. in 1997-1998. Fully custom designed and finished "Moonbeam" and her sistership were designed for the Southern Atlantic Ocean where conditions are some of the most demanding in the world. For the construction of these two fine yachts, Fraser Yachts only employed the finest craftsmen, at the top of their game.

Moonbeam is Hull #1 and the builder’s boat! Her keel was laid in 1997 and she was launched in Cape Town South Africa in 1998 as “Moonbeam”. Her sister ship "Wind Dancer" a.k.a. "Apella" is hull # 2.
Designed by Dudley Dix, the Shearwater 45 Staysail Schooner has the same classic lines as the Shearwater 39 but with a modern spade rudder instead of the transom hung rudder, enhancing the appearance, and improving close handling maneuvers. The hull has a clipper box, substantial sheer, and slight tumblehome aft fairing into a radiused champagne-glass stern, good to look at from any angle. The underbody is clean and undistorted with a fine entry, easy midship section and powerful stern.
Characteristics will follow the traditions of the smaller sister for performance- easy motion and good manners on all points of sail. Designed to be handled by two, the more costly but more easily handled staysail schooner rig is traditional North American in appearance with heavily raked mast (7 degrees) and with tremendous appeal to those discerning owners with an eye for the traditional and for the elegance of yore.
