The Bruce Clark 72 represents one of New Zealand's most respected custom yacht-building legacies — a name synonymous with serious offshore performance and robust bluewater construction. This 1988 example stretches an impressive 21 metres on deck, with a commanding 5.5-metre beam and a deep 3.2-metre draft that speaks directly to her ocean-going credentials. Designed and built for sustained passage-making in the Southern Ocean and beyond, she carries four well-appointed cabins, making her equally suited to liveaboard cruising or extended family voyages across the Pacific and further afield.
At 36 years old, a Bruce Clark yacht of this scale represents remarkable engineering for its era — built to standards that many modern production boats still aspire to. Her monohull design delivers predictable, confidence-inspiring handling in all sea states. Sitting in Tauranga, one of New Zealand's premier sailing hubs, this vessel is well-positioned for inspection and sea trials.
Opportunities to acquire a New Zealand-built 72-footer with genuine offshore pedigree at this price point are extraordinarily rare. Priced at NZD $899,000, this is a serious yacht for a serious sailor. Contact the listing broker today to arrange your private viewing.
