1987 Wilbur 30' _{(9.14 m)} Flybridge Cruiser

Overview

VICTORY is a handsome Jarvis Newman 30 finished by Wilbur Yachts. She features classic Herreshoff-style styling with white bulkheads and varnished teak trim. Her galley-down layout accommodates four, with two berths in the salon on pull-out inserts and two in the oversized V-berth with a filler cushion forward. All berths measure 6'6" in length.

The varnished teak and holly sole, along with all interior joinery, reflects the exceptional craftsmanship for which Lee Wilbur is renowned. Reading lamps are provided at both berths and the settee. Four new opening portlights, a new opening deck hatch, and several opening Diamond Sea Glaze salon windows provide abundant natural light and excellent ventilation. Headroom measures 6'3½" at the centerline in the wheelhouse and 5'10½" at the centerline below.

The hull sides are lined with teak ceilings, and there is abundant locker and drawer storage throughout. To starboard is an enclosed head with an ensuite handheld shower, vanity with a stainless-steel sink, and hot and cold pressure fresh water, along with ample storage and counter space. Opposite, to port, is the galley, featuring a 12V/110V under-counter refrigerator with freezer, a deep stainless-steel sink, and a two-burner propane stove.

Broker Remarks

The Newman 30 hull has earned a well-deserved reputation as a capable and seaworthy boat with timeless, pleasing lines. VICTORY has been extensively refit over the years by her long-term owners and is exceptionally well-equipped and ready for the season. Her current owner, a career yacht broker and the vessel's listing agent, has owned her for nearly 10 years and logged more than 600 hours at her helm while cruising extensively from Long Island, New York, to Roque Island, Maine.

VICTORY is an incredibly sweet-running boat with an excellent running attitude, cruising comfortably at 14 knots while burning an honest 7 GPH. She is being offered for sale only because our growing family is looking for a boat with more interior volume.
