1981 Islander 55 Brigantine

Bandon, Oregon

Serenity is a classical rigged brigatine built on a fiberglass hull. Starting with her Islander 55 hull, we built Serenity over a 10-year period in the Charleston Oregon shipyard. Built to the highest standard, 66’ LOA. Ship like topside, she is custom all the way. Below are 2 staterooms, 2 heads with showers, and actually includes a washer/dryer unit in the laundry area. Her John Deere 4045, engine has been fully rebuilt with less than 10 hours run time. Serenity has a roomy main salon and large galley (with full sized refrigerator). All new navigation equipment, modern electronics, and sails (9). Only thing missing is the cannons. Truly must see to appreciate!   Located in Brandon, OR.
