MUSKA is a Laurie Davidson-designed cruiser with the pedigree and build quality that make her a genuinely trustworthy offshore-capable yacht. With only two owners since launch, she's been beautifully maintained, thoughtfully upgraded and set up for easy shorthanded sailing.
She's powered by a 38hp Yanmar with just 761 hours, running beautifully and regularly serviced. In 2021 she received new standing rigging, giving buyers real confidence. Her energy system is modern and self-sufficient, featuring 480a/h of lithium batteries paired with solar and wind generation, making her ideal for extended cruising without reliance on shore power.
Under sail she's balanced, predictable and efficient -- classic Davidson lines with a solid GRP build that feels safe and composed in all conditions. Below decks she's warm, practical and well laid out, with generous berths, a proper galley, and the systems you want for real cruising rather than just weekends.
If you're looking for a strong, proven, offshore-ready cruiser that's already had the big-ticket upgrades done, MUSKA stands out. She's turnkey and ready to go -- a rare find with only two custodians and prepared for her next chapter.

Accommodation
The Cavalier 37's interior is classic, warm and highly practical for cruising. A genuinely private double quarter berth sits aft, complemented by a forward V-berth and a comfortable saloon with a starboard settee and drop-down table for extra berths. The galley is secure and functional with twin sinks and good storage, while the nav station opposite provides clear access to instruments and switch panels. The head is forward with hot/cold shower, and the overall layout is simple, seaworthy and ideal for shorthanded or extended cruising.
