1966 Sparkman & Stephens 65 65
Overview
Sparkman & Stephens is one of the most respected names in classic yacht design, known for creating serious offshore yachts that combine elegance, balance, and passagemaking capability. Built by Derecktor Shipyard in Mamaroneck, New York, this custom 65 reflects that pedigree in a substantial aluminum center cockpit ketch with timeless lines and true bluewater character.
The Sparkman & Stephens 65 was conceived as a yacht capable of offshore racing and family cruising in equal measure. Her ketch rig, centerboard configuration, and center cockpit layout deliver versatility, confident tracking, and impressive draft flexibility, while the raised saloon, three cabin three head arrangement, and generous galley give the model the comfort and utility expected in a proper long range cruiser.
This 1966 example, Circe, has spent the last 25 years in freshwater on the Great Lakes and presents as a well kept, thoughtfully updated yacht. She is powered by a 1990 Cummins 6BT 5.9 turbo diesel rated at 210 HP and benefits from a bow thruster, a full standing headroom walk in engine room, Northern Lights 8kw generator, recent Raymarine electronics, mainsail rebuild in 2024, new Harken mainsail furling in 2024, mast overhauls in 2023 and 2024, Dyneema running rigging in 2023 and 2024, hard dodger with canvas bimini, teak laid decks, and an inviting raised saloon with three private cabins and three heads.
