The Sceptre 41 is a well built, performance oriented cruising boat that was well ahead of her time with a raised salon and interior helm station. Along with the raised salon, she has many other desirable features such as a deep comfortable cockpit with step-thru transom, wide side decks, and an ocean-going performance underbody. Her interior features a dedicated interior helm station, a U-shaped galley, a raised dinette for great visibility and a stall shower.

It's not surprising that the Sceptre 41 was chosen by Ferenc Mate for his widely read book, "World's Best Sailboats".
