1983 CE Ryder Sea Sprite 34

The Sea Sprite 34 is a true New England-built classic sailing yacht. With its graceful fine lines and beautiful proportions, this boat was one of the final designs by famous American naval architect Alfred Edward “Bill” Luders, Jr. and was built by C. E. Ryder in Bristol, Rhode Island. With her full-keel and heavy displacement hull, she was built to smoothly cut through the waves and cross oceans. The port side galley includes an insulated ice chest, a two burner propane stove with oven and pressurized water. Opposite the galley to starboard is a navigation table. A starboard side quarter berth offers an additional berth or storage space. The main salon includes port and starboard side settees, with the starboard settee converting to a double berth. An enclosed head is forward to starboard and a v berth accommodating two is forward. This boat has had just one owner since 1983!
