Ted Brewer Cape North 43 ‘Bewildered’ (1975)
Overview

1975 Ted Brewer Cape North 43 ‘Bewildered‘ is a centre cockpit cutter rig sloop, built by Cape Yachts of Hong Kong, an adaptation of noted American naval architect Ted Brewer’s successful Black Velvet design.

Ted Brewer Cape North 43 ‘Bewildered Features

She has a 3/4 keel with the ‘Brewer Bite’ cutout, one of Brewer’s signature design features.  It was a clever way of adding some of the windward sailing advantages of a fin keelboat to a cruising boat’s full keel. At the same time, the “Brewer Bite” offers protection for the prop — an important feature for a cruising boat — just as you would see in a full keel design. With this design, Brewer created a very comfortable and dry sailing hull.

The yacht is of a scantling rarely found in popular production yachts today considered Mono Construction with a full glassed hull to deck joint.

Ted Brewer Cape North 43 Accommodations

Throughout the boat but particularly below decks, the craftsmanship is more indicative of a custom-built yacht and is very expensive to recreate today. The interior is finished in varnished teak and pastel colours that are expertly fitted. The full-headroom main cabin is spacious and well-appointed offering comfortable seating for six. The cabinets have teak framed with opening Teak panels and Seashores cut-outs. With windows, companionways and eleven(11) opening ports plus three(3) overhead hatches (Two(2) added by the current owner) the open cabin design allows ample light and ventilation throughout.

The yacht has been refitted over the current ownership which included sealing the interior hull structure with epoxy, an external osmosis protection system. Interior changes in the main salon, galley, passageway, and after-head compartment.

Aft of the main cabin is an efficient galley centred on a three-burner Force 10 stove. The galley is fully outfitted to accommodate everyday demands and almost any entertainment need. There is a 12v Frigo-boat top loading cold box.
