Alcázar was built for its current owner to be sailed by one couple and comfortably accommodates two couples in equally spacious staterooms.  This vessel is the optional, “mid cockpit” configuration, but combines the standard, 2-cabin layout forward, into one large guest “suite”.

 

             

 

Extensive cruising in comfort and safety were the first considerations in the vessel’s development.  In addition to Mason’s well-known reputation for beefy construction, every safety item and redundant system has been incorporated into the vessel.  The vessel is loaded with the highest quality equipment for dependability and reduced maintenance.

 

Accommodations

 

         

 

Main Salon – Entry is from the forward end of cockpit into a spacious “great cabin” effect salon.  To port is a beautiful, “Sunburst” inlaid teak dining table surrounded by a “horseshoe” shaped dinette sofa covered in Nova Suede® and to starboard is a “L” shaped settee covered in the same fabric.  The enclosed entertainment center includes a 21” color TV, VCR, AM/FM stereo, cassette deck and CD player, all remote controlled.  Teak valances on each side conceal soft backlighting and micro/mini blinds.  Adjacent to starboard side of companionway is a large wet locker with drain.

 

Nav Station – This dedicated cubicle is located to starboard, off the aft end of the main salon and features a hinged, full sized  chart table/desk top with storage beneath, a SS “swing away” chair and multiple storage cabinets.  All equipment is flush mounted in 2 panels, which are hinged and fold down for easy access and maintenance.  A large electrical panel, divided into separate AC and DC sections, contains circuit breakers for each item on the vessel and is protected by a clear, ½" Plexiglas door.

 

         

 

Galley – Overlooking and aft of the main salon to port, is a large, “Gourmet” style galley featuring ceramic tile counter tops with double, oversized SS sinks and Hans Grohe fixtures.  Appliances include a Force 10, four burner stove/oven with broiler, U-Line ice maker, Broan trash compactor, combination washer/dryer, a Grunert 10 cu.ft. top/side loading refrigerator and separate 8 cu.ft. top loading freezer.  Additionally the galley has generous drawer and locker space with built in racks for dishes and glassware.

 

             

 

Owner's Stateroom – Entry is from the aft end of the galley through a sliding pocket door and opens into a spacious suite not often found on a vessel this size.  Featuring a king size, centerline berth, “his and hers” hanging lockers and a recessed 13” color TV, this suite was designed with “stuff” in mind as it contains 32 drawers and cabinets plus tremendous storage beneath the berth.  Forward of this suite and to starboard, a private head features an elegant vanity with sculptured sink, Hans Grohe fixtures, marble counter top and floor areas plus a large, separate shower area with seat and linen storage cabinet.

 

     

 

Guest Cabin - The standard 2 cabin layout was combined to form one large suite which also serves as a “study” when not in use by guests.  Entry is forward of the main salon and features a large double berth (queen size at the shoulders) with abundant storage beneath to port.  A “love seat”, flanked by double book shelves, is to starboard.  The Suite also contains abundant locker, drawer, hanging locker and cabinet space including an enclosed 9” color TV/VCR combo.  The guest head located forward of the sleeping quarters, features an elegant vanity with sculptured sink, marble counter top and Hans Grohe fixtures.  A fixed SS ladder and large hatch above, provides additional foredeck access.

 

  

 

Focsle Entry is forward of guest head with hanging locker and sail storage bin to port side and large workbench with divided storage bins below, to starboard.  The workbench was designed to also serve as a single berth for guests or crew.  Double doors at the forward end of the focsle provide excellent access to a large chain locker with storage shelves.  Cockpit Lengthened more than 18” over the standard specs, the cockpit can comfortably seat 8 adults for sailing or 4 for dinner at a beautiful, collapsible teak table.  All control lines can be led to interior of cockpit with “single handed” sailing in mind.  A combination of dodger, bimini and removable full enclosure allow for sailing in any weather conditions.  DeckFlush deck hatches over the foredeck and aft lazarette storage spaces, combined with low profile cabin hatches, result in expansive, uncluttered areas for both work and play.

 

Engine Spaces -  The auxiliary and generator are located in a heavily insulated compartment beneath the salon cabin sole thereby increasing stability and reducing cabin noise.  This also allows for abundant storage elsewhere in the vessel.  Their “inline” positioning (auxiliary aft & generator fwd), results in comfortable access to every aspect of the 2 engines for ease of routine maintenance or repair.  Lazarette & Storage Spaces - The standard aft lazarette was increased in size due to the relocation of the two 20 lb LP bottles and outboard motor gasoline tanks, to dedicated storage compartments on the foredeck which are vented and drained overboard for safety.  Noisy refrigeration and HVAC compressors are located in the lazarette, outside of living spaces or the hot engine room.

 

     Alcázar this sailboat has been maintained in a “cherished” condition and its equipment has been constantly up-graded, including a new Awlgrip paint job in November 2002.  A visit to both of these links, Alcazar del Mar Photographs and Detailed Specifications and Equipment List, are a must to truly appreciate this sailboat being offered for sale.  Why wait to sail the Bahamas, Caribbean or the world.  Additional information can be obtained by contacting your Broker or the original owner, Mike Welty, at any of the following:
