Welcome aboard "The Devil's Gauntlet", a truly one of a kind, historic & iconic motorsailer that was built in Pillar Point, California. Her build was supported with extensive help and shared knowledge from the Philip & Son Shipyard (Dartmouth, England). The Devil's Gauntlet is an exact, full size replica of the Brigantine "Sultana" (1768), a Royal British Navy ship that was built to protect the Massachusetts coast from piracy, prevent smuggling, and collect customs duties.

The Devil's Gauntlet boasts 2 wooden masts, a bow pulpit, with the wheel and upper rudder post aft of the raised companionway. She has a forward sloping aft deck with a boom gallows just aft of the wheel station. A seven rung wooden ladder that leads down the companion way into the main salon which has a full wet bar with a sink and serving counter. There is a U-shaped settee with a granite counter top end table and mirrored cabinet above. Her centered passage leads forward down two steps where on the starboard side is the main AC panel box, the guest head, and the aft and forward guest state rooms. On the port side is access to the fuel filters, the U-shaped galley, and the aft and forward guest state rooms. A wooden swing door leads from the port forward state room to the V cabin, which is currently used as a tool and spare equipment room. Aft is the master state room with its own on suite head.

Her hull is constructed from a Kevlar/Polymer composite which is known to provide unparalleled strength, performance, and able to stand the test of time. Kevlar/Polymer hulls greatly reduce many issues that come from traditional fiberglass construction and they are still widely preferred and used by many reputable boat building shipyards throughout the world.

The Devils Gauntlet has been completely refit (2019-2022) by her current owner to be a fully functional, blue water, motorsailer with all the creature comforts and amenities. She can sleep 14 guests between 5 staterooms. Today the Devils Gauntlet stands tall in Long Beach, Ca and awaits her next owner to continue the adventure! The current slip is transferable.
