Overview

Climate Change is a 1986 45' Bruce Roberts Center Cockpit Ketch. She is a sound design custom built by SeaMaster Yachts of Fort Lauderdale. She has a fiberglass hull with full keel and deck stepped main and mizzen masts. A review in Offshore a few years ago said the most remarkable thing about the Bruce Roberts is that there is nothing unremarkable about them. This makes them ideal cruising boats as none of their proportions are exaggerated. This may make them a bit slower compared to very modern designs, but it also means that they may be a bit gentler in a slop.
