1936 Classic Motorsailor

Vagabundo, a classic Motor Sailor with a ketch sail plan, was designed by Walton Hubbard Jr. Co. and Frederick C Brewer for Louis Cass. She was built by South Coast Boat Building Co. in Newport Beach, California. Louis Cass, an active boater, with his family took Vagabundo on many fishing trips to Catalina and Ensenada. During WWII, Vagabundo saw duty as a Coast Guard surveillance vessel and still wears her 7 chevrons proudly as authorized by the Secretary of the Navy.

In 1968 Harold and Helen Ayres acquired Vagabundo from the Cass estate and immediately embarked on a complete renovation and modernization program. The latest in galley and electronic equipment were installed and she was restored to classic yacht condition. As a result during the 1969 opening day yacht inspection at Newport Harbor Yacht Club, Vagabundo won first place for power boats more than 40 feet. Don Culver assumed stewardship in 1976 and brought Vagabundo up the coast to Seattle. In 1994, the current owners undertook a multi-year program of restoration and modernization, again restoring her to classic yacht condition. Now Vagabundo awaits her next caretakers. Motivated seller wants this magnificent yacht sold this month!
