About this Sailboat:
Unquestionably blue-water capable, this Mason 44 offers all accommodations necessary to provide a safe and comfortable two stateroom cruising yacht with an interior that is functional, practical, and has generous storage. There are sleeping accommodations for up to six persons with two private staterooms feature large and comfortable double berths.
This Mason 44 stands out from the rest in a long range cruiser and has all that could be offered. Her traditionally beautiful and pleasing lines, outstanding craftsmanship, and proven single-handed features such as electric self-tailing primary winches, electric in-mast furling main, and headsail furlers along with an extensive compliment of inventory provide a fantastic value. Continuous professional maintenance to yacht standards by her caring owner, she is fully found and ready to cruise reliably and safely offshore or coastal. In addition, her beautiful Forest Green hull will make heads turn when entering any port.
The Mason 44 has long been admired for not only it’s classic beauty and safe long range cruising capabilities, but also for retaining value.

REVIEWS/EXCERPTS
Practical Sailor: “When compared to other boats in its class, (the Mason 44) is a bargain. If there is a better deal on the quality end of the sailboat spectrum, we havn’t seen it. Best quality-to-price ratio.”
