Description
"Star Stuff" has been sailing the Caribbean for a few years now and has been lovingly cared for by her owners. She is well equipped for extensive cruising, with tons of upgrades. Her chainplates, running, and standing rigging were replaced in 2019/2020, and in 2022 her engine had a complete rebuild! Her warm, classic interior is built for cruisier comfort, with a v berth up forward, a huge aft stateroom, and easy engine room access.
"Star Stuff" is currently located in St. Lucia. Does St. Lucia seem too far away? It is - in a good way! The owners of this Whitby 42 have done all the "easting". The hard work of windward sailing has already been done - you won't have to motor sail against prevailing winds to get to some of the most beautiful spots in the Eastern Caribbean. Star Stuff is a daysail away from Martinique and Grenada and just a few days from beautiful Guadeloupe and Les Saints. Skip the Thorny Path and take advantage of this vessel's location and get to the good stuff faster!
S/V "Star Stuff" is a worthy example of the build quality, attention to living space, and aesthetics that Whitby 42s are famous for. Designed by the renowned naval architect Ted Brewer, she combines classic design with comfort, making her the perfect boat for coastal cruising, island hopping, and bluewater sailing.
"with a generous sail area of 875 square feet, a long waterline, and well-
designed underbody, these ketches sail remarkably well – several owners report speeds of 7.5 to 8 knots on a close reach. In the 1970s, the Whitby 42 Revelation collected a number of firsts while racing under PHRF in California.
Comfortable, seaworthy, and forgiving of a novice sailor, the Whitby 42 found a receptive clientele, and Whitby Boat Works sold 233 of them before ceasing production in 1987." - Tom Zydler, Cruising World Magazine

Carolyn grew up living aboard her family’s 47’ GulfStar Sailmaster, cruising up and down the East Coast and through the Bahamas for nearly twenty years. Shew crewed on various boats, detailed boats, and worked at a prominent marina in St. Augustine, FL, while working her way through college. She worked her way up to management at the marina and was a loyal employee for over 15 years. Talking to the boaters of all types as they transited the ICW and stopped at the marina, was one of the highlights of her job, but they got to take off and head to places more tropical while she was stuck in St. Augustine.
Carolyn is a fine arts graduate from Flagler College, an artist, yogi, and an avid surfer and guitar player. She travels the world to various surfing destinations whenever she can and enjoys traveling solo.
After the marina, Carolyn worked for a local recruiting firm and then Solar Stik as an administrative assistant. She has also taught yoga at various venues around St. Augustine. She brings her organizational and logistical skills with her to Sunshine Cruising Yachts, and is very excited to be working on the water again. She lives with her husband and two boys as well as various animals (mainly cats and guinea pigs) in St. Augustine.
Be careful! Her enthusiasm is contagious!
, `testimonial` ="Carolyn is the boat broker to work with!
My wife and I used her to sell our 38ft sailboat and she was awesome to work with. We had the boat in Georgia while we lived in Idaho and she was located in Florida and she went out of her way to help when things needed to get done on the boat.
I would recommend her to absolutely anyone that is looking to sell or buy a boat. An absolute pleasure to work with
