Adams 13 Shoal draft Lift keel Just Listed

A rare opportunity to acquire a fully equipped, centreboard Adams 13 -- a yacht renowned for its offshore pedigree, balanced performance, and the intelligent design work of Joe Adams. This vessel has been continuously upgraded, maintained, and is presented in excellent condition with a comprehensive inventory suited to coastal cruising, bluewater passages, or competitive club racing.

With an excellent sail wardrobe, modern electronics, recent hull and mechanical upgrades, and the versatility of a lifting centreboard, this Adams 13 stands out as one of the most capable and best-prepared examples currently available.

The hull has been recently repainted and antifouled with Seahawk antifoul in February 2025, ensuring a clean, efficient underwater profile. The Yanmar engine has been regularly serviced, complemented by new fuel lines throughout, a new lift pump, injector replacement and exhuast elbow in 2021, and a water pump service in April 2025 -- all contributing to reliable, trouble-free operation.

Premium features such as carbon sails, anchor windlass, solar and battery system, and instrumentation further elevate this yacht above typical offerings. When you factor in the hull repaint, 2025 antifoul, safety gear, robust anchoring system, and the sheer breadth of included equipment, the total replacement cost of this vessel would be many tens of thousands above the current asking price.

For buyers seeking a turn-key, offshore-ready cruiser-racer, this Adams 13 represents an opportunity that is exceptionally difficult to match at this price point.
Genuine enquiries are invited -- this yacht is ready for its next owner and its next adventure.
