The Ron Given is a distinguished 1991 New Zealand-designed monohull yacht measuring 12.3 metres on the waterline, with a generous beam of 4.4 metres and a shallow draft of just 0.9 metres — making her equally at home in the sheltered anchorages of the Bay of Islands as she is on longer bluewater passages. Designed by respected New Zealand naval architect Ron Given, this vessel reflects the craftsmanship and practical ocean-going philosophy that defines the best of Kiwi yacht design. Her two-cabin layout offers comfortable accommodation for couples or small crews, with the beam providing exceptional interior volume for a yacht of this era.
The shallow draft opens up cruising grounds that deeper keeled vessels simply cannot access, a significant advantage in New Zealand's island-studded northern waters. Sitting in one of the country's most enviable cruising locations, the Bay of Islands, this yacht is perfectly positioned for immediate use across some of the Pacific's most spectacular sailing territory. Whether you're planning coastal weekenders or extended offshore passages, the Ron Given represents a rare opportunity to acquire a thoughtfully designed, uniquely New Zealand bluewater cruiser.
Offered at NZD $349,000, inspections are strongly encouraged.
