Once upon a time, yacht broker Jack Kelly challenged race boat designer Doug Peterson to create a comfortable cruising sailboat without compromising excellent sailing performance. That was the origin of the legendary Kelly Peterson 44; a center-cockpit, cutter-rigged sloop, blue-water cruiser.
Top Cider has been with her current onwers for 7 years and they have worked to increase her sailing performance as well as her comfort. In their first 8 months they prepared her for her first cruising season with some major projects:
Bottom peel with epoxy barrier coat.
Replaced all through-hulls.
Replaced AC and DC electrical panels.
Replaced rudder.
Replaced prop shaft and pillow block.
Added Max-Prop.
Added PYI dripless packing.
Added solar panels & charge controller.
Added Little Wonder water maker.
With Top Cider ready, for the past 7 seasons she has cruised with family and friends up and down the Pacific coast between California and Central America. This boat has proven both her performance and her comfort even when traveling with 3-generations of crew.
Fully outfitted and ready to cruise.
