Owner’s Comments

Cherubini 44 Cutter METEOR is a time and sea-tested bluewater cruising classic. She is designed to make ocean passages safely, comfortably and surprisingly swiftly. A full keel, clipper bow and cutter rig provides numerous sail combinations to balance the boat in nearly any condition, all combining to create a gentle easy motion. She has made numerous transatlantic passages – the most recent being a twelve-day leg from Nova Scotia to the Azores in 2021. She has cruised extensively throughout the Atlantic, exploring the coastal waters of the North American Seaboard, Caribbean, Bahamas, Northern Europe and the Med.

Drawn with Herreshoff’s iconic Ticonderoga in mind, the Cherubini 44 Cutter is a fast and beautiful yacht. Her slender hull, keyhole cockpit, lovely tumblehome and classic wineglass stern turn heads wherever she goes. Though not as beamy down below as modern yachts, the interior design provides a spacious layout with beautiful cherry wood paneling, comfortable sleeping accommodations for five including a separate navigation/owner’s cabin, a U-shaped galley perfect for offshore conditions and plenty of storage space for long distance cruising.

She has been well loved by those who have had the privilege of owning her and this is apparent in the daily care and the various rig, interior and engineering system refits undertaken in keeping her “bristol”, ensuring many more years of adventures for her future owners.
