2011 Rustler 44

Design and Capability Designed by Stephen Jones and built by Rustler Yachts, this yacht was conceived to deliver fast, comfortable passage making alongside exceptional build quality. The result is a serious bluewater cruiser, designed to look after her crew offshore while remaining a refined and durable place to live aboard. Specification and Equipment This yacht is exceptionally well specified for long-distance cruising. Equipment includes a generator, inverter, diesel heating, bow thruster, electric halyard winch, and electric primary winches. In addition, she benefits from a comprehensive electronics package, davits, white sails from 2020, a cruising chute, recent batteries, recent standing rigging, and a dinghy with outboard. As a result, she presents as a complete and capable cruising package. Condition and Recent Use The yacht presents in very good condition throughout. A recent Caribbean circuit confirms both her capability and her readiness for further offshore use. Serviced, antifouled & prepared for the 2026 season – launch is scheduled for April 2026. Location and Viewing She is currently located outside the Rustler factory in Falmouth, an ideal place to inspect a yacht of this pedigree.
