2011 Custom

COMPASS ROSE is a 161’ (49.23m) aluminum long-range displacement yacht built by C & G Boatworks in 2011 and refit in 2015. Designed and engineered for serious global cruising, she offers the range, systems redundancy, and operational capability typically found in substantially larger expedition platforms, while remaining within the highly desirable 50-meter class.

Constructed with an aluminum hull and superstructure and measuring approximately 621 gross tons, COMPASS ROSE combines strength, efficiency, and volume in a well-balanced explorer profile. Powered by twin Caterpillar 3508B main engines, she cruises comfortably at 12 knots with a maximum speed of 15 knots and delivers an impressive range of over 9,000 nautical miles at 10 knots. Her substantial fuel capacity, gravity-fed day tanks, fuel centrifuge purification system, and double-hull fuel tank configuration underscore her serious offshore credentials.

The yacht’s engineering infrastructure reflects a focus on autonomy and redundancy. She is equipped with three 100 kW generators, emergency battery reserves, redundant sea chests, extensive fuel and oil management systems, oversized tankage, and commercial-grade electrical installations. Two high-capacity watermakers, copper-nickel raw water plumbing, and Hydro-Pac water pressure regulation further support extended remote operations. Soft patches in the decks allow crane access to the engine room, reinforcing the vessel’s serviceability and practical design philosophy.

Accommodations are configured for 10 guests in five staterooms, including a king master, three queen VIP, and one double twin cabin. Crew quarters accommodate up to 10 in five cabins, allowing for a fully staffed program suitable for extended cruising. The yacht’s 36-foot beam provides generous interior volume and comfortable living spaces throughout.

Her navigation and communications suite includes Furuno radar systems, gyrocompass, autopilot, TimeZero plotting software, FLIR night vision, KVH satellite communications, and Starlink Maritime high-speed connectivity, ensuring operational confidence both offshore and at anchor.

COMPASS ROSE also distinguishes herself with a substantial tender and support inventory, including a 42’ Gamefisherman-walkaround, a 30’ Munson Pack Cat landing craft, additional RIBs, personal watercraft, and two Chittum Flats Skiffs—making her equally capable as an expedition yacht, mothership platform, or private family cruiser. Safety systems are robust and comprehensive, with multi-point fire suppression, firefighting stations, survival equipment, and life rafts exceeding typical recreational standards.

COMPASS ROSE represents a rare opportunity to acquire a proven, aluminum, long-range displacement yacht engineered for true ocean-going capability. She offers the range, systems sophistication, and operational integrity demanded by owners seeking global exploration without compromise.

COMPASS ROSE represents a compelling opportunity in the 45–50m expedition segment. With 9,000+ nautical mile range, aluminum construction, and 621 GT of volume, she offers true long-range capability rarely found in this size bracket. Her extensive tender inventory—including a 42’ Gamefisherman and 30’ Munson landing craft—positions her uniquely for serious exploration, fishing operations, or remote cruising programs.

The yacht benefits from a 2015 refit and has been professionally maintained. Caterpillar 3508B main engines provide reliable, proven performance, and her mechanical spaces are well laid out for service access. Accommodations for 10 guests and 10 crew allow for either private family use or high-capacity operational deployment.

She is an ideal candidate for an owner seeking global capability without stepping into the 60m+ category. Inspection is strongly encouraged for buyers considering expedition-style platforms, support yachts, or long-range private cruising programs.
