Sea Bold Yacht | 96' New England Boatworks 2003

This is a rare opportunity to own a yacht that looks like a yacht!  Her timeless traditional New England lines coupled with her intentionally engineered strength make this exceptional vessel a true boater's boat.  

"Sea Bold" is a custom-built, one-of-one unique motor yacht, styled in a form-follows-function classic design often associated with vessels designed by C. Raymond Hunt in New Bedford, Massachusetts.  She was built by the amazing team at New England Boatworks in Portsmouth, Rhode Island in 2003, and she is both stylish in design and elegant in nature, while engineered for the serious yachtsman who plans to cruise and enjoy this fine motor yacht in a variety of locations.

Originally constructed in 2003, she received a refit in 2019-2020.  She is built of Kevlar and Carbon Fiber advanced composite construction for structural integrity and light weight, making her very strong.  She has excellent seakeeping abilities due to her construction, along with her deep vee hull design.  She has only ever been in private use, and has never been chartered. 

She is capable of a fast cruising speed of 22 knots, and a top speed of 25 knots.  Slower cruising is enjoyable as time permits, and her economy is very good for a vessel of her size.  She is maintained by her full-time captain/engineer and a full-time stew, so she is in very, very nice condition overall. 

Please be sure to click on the Other Details tab to read all of the information on this special, one of a kind classic New England styled yacht!

Note that the owners of this vessel are actively aboard and cruising her, so we will need a minimum of 24 hours advanced notice to schedule an appointment to show her to you!

Stepping aboard Sea Bold, you are immediately struck by the classic lines and heavy construction of this fine motor yacht.  Her designers engineered her to be cruised, and not simply as a harbor queen.  Heavy handholds, proper storage areas for all of her gear, good lighting, and quality construction using the best materials are easily seen throughout. 

Her enclosed pilothouse is climate controlled, and her bridge was designed in the same manner as many large ships - excellent sight lines, an easy to interpret electronics layout, and quality Stidd seating make it a wonderful spot to enjoy for both the captain and guests.  There is a day head aft to starboard with a large TV forward, a large chart table, a settee to port with office area aft, and a door out to the aft bridge deck.  Aft of the enclosed pilothouse is a wonderful outdoor entertainment area with seating and a table to port, opposite a countertop with TV, sink, and cold storage below.  Moving further aft brings you to the area that is used to store the tender when underway, along with the lift rafts.  Access to the bridge is from either the internal staircase, or from the cockpit stairs.

The main level offers wide side decks with handholds where you would expect them.  Anchor handling is forward with windlass and storage under the deck.  As you move aft, there is additional storage within a few compartments in the coachroof.  Her side decks are symmetrical in dimension, and allow safe and easy passage.  There are two side doors to access the interior of the main dining area.  Moving further aft there is additional storage just before the rear entertainment space.  The aft entertainment space is separated into to different areas, allowing for guests to enjoy separate conversations without speaking over one another.  There are three beautiful wooden deck chairs aft which overlook the stern and stern steps down to the oversized swim platform.  Forward of those chairs is additional built-in storage, including an area to store some longer items.  Moving further forward brings you to the exterior entertainment area with a full dining table and seating for 6-8.  Forward to port is an electric grill, sink, TV, and lots of storage.  Opposite to starboard is the aft ladder up to the bridge deck.

Stepping inside from the entertainment area leads you in to the warm and welcoming main salon.  The salon is dressed in neutral colors and warm fabrics, making her a very inviting place to spend time with family and friends.  Much of the interior has what many would refer to as a "Herreshoff style" interior, meaning that it is very light and airy, and has some wonderful varnished wood accents throughout.  Also of note - you have a full 360 degree view to the outside from anywhere inside the main level of this vessel.  Two large settees sit opposite each other, and there is custom wine storage below a couple of the settees and table.  There is a bar forward on the starboard side as well.  A large television can swivel out to enjoy while lounging in the salon, and there is a counter with storage below, along with dual refrigerators.  Stairs to starboard lead up to the bridge.

Moving further forward brings you to the main dining area.  A comfortable table with ample seating, lots of natural light, and the ability to open up the side doors to enjoy a nice breeze make this an ideal place to enjoy a meal in the company of good friends.

Forward of the dining area is the raised office/library area which has a desk, table, and upholstered chair.  This is a great spot to curl up and enjoy a good book while still enjoying the beautiful natural light coming in through the large windows.

Sea Bold was designed to accommodate eight guests in four staterooms.  They are all accessed off of a foyer which is down the steps to starboard in the salon.  The Master & VIP staterooms each sleep two guests, and they are a mirror of one another, conjoined in the center. They each have a separate ensuite head with separate stall shower.  Beautiful varnished wood make up the berths, drawers, cabinets, and storage spaces.  The two additional staterooms are forward off of the foyer and allow sleeping for four guests.  There is a shared head with separate stall shower off of the foyer for these two staterooms.

Access to the galley and crew cabins is to starboard of the raised office/library off of the dining area.  As you step down into this area, there is a settee and table to starboard with stacked washer & dryer on the aft bulkhead.  Galley extends out to port, and there is a large refrigerator aft.  Further to port is the U-shaped galley, which has a full suite of appliances for the chef to enjoy.  Ample storage is found throughout. 

Forward of the galley, there are two crew cabins each with two bunks, and each with their own head.  Both hanging and drawer storage may be found throughout.

Engine room is accessed via two deck hatches - one just aft of the salon door, and the other is from the aft deck near the varnished seats.  Engine room is full height, which allows for easy maintenance, care, and repairs to all of the mechanical systems.

Stepping inside from the entertainment area leads you in to the warm and welcoming main salon. The salon is dressed in neutral colors and warm fabrics, making her a very inviting place to spend time with family and friends. Much of the interior has what many would refer to as a "Herreshoff style" interior, meaning that it is very light and airy, and has some wonderful varnished wood accents throughout. Also of note - you have a full 360 degree view to the outside from anywhere inside the main level of this vessel. Two large settees sit opposite each other, and there is custom wine storage below a couple of the settees and table. There is a bar forward on the starboard side as well. A large television can swivel out to enjoy while lounging in the salon, and there is a counter with storage below, along with dual refrigerators. Stairs to starboard lead up to the bridge.

Moving further forward brings you to the main dining area. A comfortable table with ample seating, lots of natural light, and the ability to open up the side doors to enjoy a nice breeze make this an ideal place to enjoy a meal in the company of good friends.

Forward of the dining area is the raised office/library area which has a desk, table, and upholstered chair. This is a great spot to curl up and enjoy a good book while still enjoying the beautiful natural light coming in through the large windows.

Sea Bold  was designed to accommodate eight guests in four staterooms. They are all accessed off of a foyer which is down the steps to starboard in the salon. The Master & VIP staterooms each sleep two guests, and they are a mirror of one another, conjoined in the center. They each have a separate ensuite head with separate stall shower. Beautiful varnished wood make up the berths, drawers, cabinets, and storage spaces. The two additional staterooms are forward off of the foyer and allow sleeping for four guests. There is a shared head with separate stall shower off of the foyer for these two staterooms.

Access to the galley and crew cabins is to starboard of the raised office/library off of the dining area. As you step down into this area, there is a settee and table to starboard with stacked washer & dryer on the aft bulkhead. Galley extends out to port, and there is a large refrigerator aft. Further to port is the U-shaped galley, which has a full suite of appliances for the chef to enjoy. Ample storage is found throughout. 

Forward of the galley, there are two crew cabins each with two bunks, and each with their own head. Both hanging and drawer storage may be found throughout.

Engine room is accessed via two deck hatches - one just aft of the salon door, and the other is from the aft deck near the varnished seats. Engine room is full height, which allows for easy maintenance, care, and repairs to all of the mechanical systems.

Vessel Overview & Layout

Stepping aboard  Sea Bold , you are immediately struck by the classic lines and heavy construction of this fine motor yacht. Her designers engineered her to be cruised, and not simply as a harbor queen. Heavy handholds, proper storage areas for all of her gear, good lighting, and quality construction using the best materials are easily seen throughout. 

Her enclosed pilothouse is climate controlled, and her bridge was designed in the same manner as many large ships - excellent sight lines, an easy to interpret electronics layout, and quality Stidd seating make it a wonderful spot to enjoy for both the captain and guests. There is a day head aft to starboard with a large TV forward, a large chart table, a settee to port with office area aft, and a door out to the aft bridge deck. Aft of the enclosed pilothouse is a wonderful outdoor entertainment area with seating and a table to port, opposite a countertop with TV, sink, and cold storage below. Moving further aft brings you to the area that is used to store the tender when underway, along with the lift rafts. Access to the bridge is from either the internal staircase, or from the cockpit stairs.

The main level offers wide side decks with handholds where you would expect them. Anchor handling is forward with windlass and storage under the deck. As you move aft, there is additional storage within a few compartments in the coachroof. Her side decks are symmetrical in dimension, and allow safe and easy passage. There are two side doors to access the interior of the main dining area. Moving further aft there is additional storage just before the rear entertainment space. The aft entertainment space is separated into to different areas, allowing for guests to enjoy separate conversations without speaking over one another. There are three beautiful wooden deck chairs aft which overlook the stern and stern steps down to the oversized swim platform. Forward of those chairs is additional built-in storage, including an area to store some longer items. Moving further forward brings you to the exterior entertainment area with a full dining table and seating for 6-8. Forward to port is an electric grill, sink, TV, and lots of storage. Opposite to starboard is the aft ladder up to the bridge deck.

Stepping inside from the entertainment area leads you in to the warm and welcoming main salon. The salon is dressed in neutral colors and warm fabrics, making her a very inviting place to spend time with family and friends. Much of the interior has what many would refer to as a "Herreshoff style" interior, meaning that it is very light and airy, and has some wonderful varnished wood accents throughout. Also of note - you have a full 360 degree view to the outside from anywhere inside the main level of this vessel. Two large settees sit opposite each other, and there is custom wine storage below a couple of the settees and table. There is a bar forward on the starboard side as well. A large television can swivel out to enjoy while lounging in the salon, and there is a counter with storage below, along with dual refrigerators. Stairs to starboard lead up to the bridge.

Moving further forward brings you to the main dining area. A comfortable table with ample seating, lots of natural light, and the ability to open up the side doors to enjoy a nice breeze make this an ideal place to enjoy a meal in the company of good friends.

Forward of the dining area is the raised office/library area which has a desk, table, and upholstered chair. This is a great spot to curl up and enjoy a good book while still enjoying the beautiful natural light coming in through the large windows.

Sea Bold  was designed to accommodate eight guests in four staterooms. They are all accessed off of a foyer which is down the steps to starboard in the salon. The Master & VIP staterooms each sleep two guests, and they are a mirror of one another, conjoined in the center. They each have a separate ensuite head with separate stall shower. Beautiful varnished wood make up the berths, drawers, cabinets, and storage spaces. The two additional staterooms are forward off of the foyer and allow sleeping for four guests. There is a shared head with separate stall shower off of the foyer for these two staterooms.

Access to the galley and crew cabins is to starboard of the raised office/library off of the dining area. As you step down into this area, there is a settee and table to starboard with stacked washer & dryer on the aft bulkhead. Galley extends out to port, and there is a large refrigerator aft. Further to port is the U-shaped galley, which has a full suite of appliances for the chef to enjoy. Ample storage is found throughout. 

Forward of the galley, there are two crew cabins each with two bunks, and each with their own head. Both hanging and drawer storage may be found throughout.

Engine room is accessed via two deck hatches - one just aft of the salon door, and the other is from the aft deck near the varnished seats. Engine room is full height, which allows for easy maintenance, care, and repairs to all of the mechanical systems.

Ray Hunt Design Yacht SEA BOLD

A ray hunt design classic.

Luxury yacht SEA BOLD is a custom Ray Hunt yacht built by New England Boatworks. She was delivered in 2003 and has been refit over the past few years. This included a full engine rebuild on the starboard engine to 0 hours, a full top-end rebuild on the port engine, a new exhaust system, rebuilt transmissions, and a total re-paint. SEA BOLD was built in Kevlar and carbon fiber epoxy advanced composite construction. This creates a lightweight super strong boat that can operate at high speeds in demanding seas. With a high-speed cruise of 22 knots and a top-end speed of 25 knots, she was designed with the famous Ray Hunt Deep V hull to be able to make high-speed runs to the Bahamas whenever demanded.

Superyacht SEA BOLD features a traditional New England yacht profile, which includes a beautiful air-conditioned fully enclosed flybridge/pilothouse. The owner of this yacht has kept it in pristine condition, as she has had plenty of refit money thrown into her in the past few years.

General Description

"Sea Bold" is a custom-built, one-of-one unique motor yacht, styled in a form-follows-function classic design often associated with vessels designed by C. Raymond Hunt in New Bedford, Massachusetts. She was built by the amazing team at New England Boatworks in Portsmouth, Rhode Island in 2003, and she is both stylish in design and elegant in nature, while engineered for the serious yachtsman who plans to cruise and enjoy this fine motor yacht in a variety of locations.

Originally constructed in 2003, she received a refit in 2019-2020. She is built of Kevlar and Carbon Fiber advanced composite construction for structural integrity and light weight, making her very strong. She has excellent seakeeping abilities due to her construction, along with her deep vee hull design. She has only ever been in private use, and has never been chartered. 

She is capable of a fast cruising speed of 22 knots, and a top speed of 25 knots. Slower cruising is enjoyable as time permits, and her economy is very good for a vessel of her size. She is maintained by her full-time captain/engineer and a full-time stew, so she is in very, very nice condition overall. 

Please be sure to click on the  Other Details  tab to read all of the information on this special, one of a kind classic New England styled yacht!

 Note that the owners of this vessel are actively aboard and cruising her, so we will need a minimum of 24 hours advanced notice to schedule an appointment to show her to you!

Vessel Overview & Layout

Stepping aboard  Sea Bold , you are immediately struck by the classic lines and heavy construction of this fine motor yacht. Her designers engineered her to be cruised, and not simply as a harbor queen. Heavy handholds, proper storage areas for all of her gear, good lighting, and quality construction using the best materials are easily seen throughout. 

Her enclosed pilothouse is climate controlled, and her bridge was designed in the same manner as many large ships - excellent sight lines, an easy to interpret electronics layout, and quality Stidd seating make it a wonderful spot to enjoy for both the captain and guests. There is a day head aft to starboard with a large TV forward, a large chart table, a settee to port with office area aft, and a door out to the aft bridge deck. Aft of the enclosed pilothouse is a wonderful outdoor entertainment area with seating and a table to port, opposite a countertop with TV, sink, and cold storage below. Moving further aft brings you to the area that is used to store the tender when underway, along with the lift rafts. Access to the bridge is from either the internal staircase, or from the cockpit stairs.

The main level offers wide side decks with handholds where you would expect them. Anchor handling is forward with windlass and storage under the deck. As you move aft, there is additional storage within a few compartments in the coachroof. Her side decks are symmetrical in dimension, and allow safe and easy passage. There are two side doors to access the interior of the main dining area. Moving further aft there is additional storage just before the rear entertainment space. The aft entertainment space is separated into to different areas, allowing for guests to enjoy separate conversations without speaking over one another. There are three beautiful wooden deck chairs aft which overlook the stern and stern steps down to the oversized swim platform. Forward of those chairs is additional built-in storage, including an area to store some longer items. Moving further forward brings you to the exterior entertainment area with a full dining table and seating for 6-8. Forward to port is an electric grill, sink, TV, and lots of storage. Opposite to starboard is the aft ladder up to the bridge deck.

Stepping inside from the entertainment area leads you in to the warm and welcoming main salon. The salon is dressed in neutral colors and warm fabrics, making her a very inviting place to spend time with family and friends. Much of the interior has what many would refer to as a "Herreshoff style" interior, meaning that it is very light and airy, and has some wonderful varnished wood accents throughout. Also of note - you have a full 360 degree view to the outside from anywhere inside the main level of this vessel. Two large settees sit opposite each other, and there is custom wine storage below a couple of the settees and table. There is a bar forward on the starboard side as well. A large television can swivel out to enjoy while lounging in the salon, and there is a counter with storage below, along with dual refrigerators. Stairs to starboard lead up to the bridge.

Moving further forward brings you to the main dining area. A comfortable table with ample seating, lots of natural light, and the ability to open up the side doors to enjoy a nice breeze make this an ideal place to enjoy a meal in the company of good friends.

Forward of the dining area is the raised office/library area which has a desk, table, and upholstered chair. This is a great spot to curl up and enjoy a good book while still enjoying the beautiful natural light coming in through the large windows.

Sea Bold  was designed to accommodate eight guests in four staterooms. They are all accessed off of a foyer which is down the steps to starboard in the salon. The Master & VIP staterooms each sleep two guests, and they are a mirror of one another, conjoined in the center. They each have a separate ensuite head with separate stall shower. Beautiful varnished wood make up the berths, drawers, cabinets, and storage spaces. The two additional staterooms are forward off of the foyer and allow sleeping for four guests. There is a shared head with separate stall shower off of the foyer for these two staterooms.

Access to the galley and crew cabins is to starboard of the raised office/library off of the dining area. As you step down into this area, there is a settee and table to starboard with stacked washer & dryer on the aft bulkhead. Galley extends out to port, and there is a large refrigerator aft. Further to port is the U-shaped galley, which has a full suite of appliances for the chef to enjoy. Ample storage is found throughout. 

Forward of the galley, there are two crew cabins each with two bunks, and each with their own head. Both hanging and drawer storage may be found throughout.

Engine room is accessed via two deck hatches - one just aft of the salon door, and the other is from the aft deck near the varnished seats. Engine room is full height, which allows for easy maintenance, care, and repairs to all of the mechanical systems.

A Fleet of Candela’s Electric Foiling Yachts Is Rolling Out to the Red Sea in 2025

Candela is taking its flying yacht to new heights.

Announced in June 2022 and launched in November 2023, the P-12 is the fourth model in Candela’s fleet, following the C-7 , C-8 , and P-8 Voyager that debuted in 2020, 2021, and 2022, respectively. (The yard also launched a C-8 Polestar Edition in July.) The zero-emission 39-footer “flies” above the waves using computer-guided hydrofoils that are adjusted 100 times per second to ensure smoothness and stability. Candela says the P-12 uses 80 percent less energy than conventional shuttle ships and will emit 97.5 percent less CO2 during its lifetime than a traditional diesel-powered vessel of the same size.

Equipped with two of Candela’s electric C-POD motors and four 63 kWh batteries, the P-12 has a top speed of 30 knots and a range of 40 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 25 knots. The yacht also creates a minimal wake and is well-suited to coastal cruising. The fleet serving the Red Sea will be able to carry 30 passengers around the northwestern shores of Saudi Arabia.

“We’re extremely proud to provide a vessel system designed with both passengers and the environment in mind,” Hasselskog adds.” Short waiting times, quick connections, and a very enjoyable experience without taxing the environment with wakes, emissions, and noise will revolutionize how we travel on water.”

The P-12 will debut as part of Stockholm’s public transport system this fall. The NEOM fleet will then be delivered in 2025 and early 2026.

The shepherd of the sea guiding small boats home to safety in South Africa

In the isolated village of Hondeklip Bay, Patrick Rulph is the lone voice on the radio bringing fishers back to shore.

Patrick Rulph

Hondeklip Bay, South Africa – Before day breaks on a cloudy morning in Hondeklip Bay, a small fishing village in South Africa’s semi-arid Namaqualand region, Patrick Rulph rushes out of his front door in track pants, a loose-fitting hoodie and a dark cap.

The 61-year-old moves with urgency as he makes his way down the 200-metre-long dirt road to the beach, hoping to catch the fishers before they head to sea.

Keep reading

From the cape: south africa’s bo-kaap, the surfer chef behind south africa’s first fine dining halal restaurant, in search of ramadan with south africa’s men who sight the moon.

“They don’t go to sea at set times, and I want to see exactly how many fishers are out,” says Rulph, with a knowing smile that reflects the pride he takes in his work monitoring and guiding the small boats that go out to sea.

On the shore, bags holding fishing gear and lunches sit at the high watermark on the sand. The fishers try and warm themselves in pockets of defiant sunlight while their fellow crew members arrive one by one.

Ruins of the old fish canning factory and the remains of a jetty that was destroyed by a storm years ago are evidence of a once-booming fishing industry that employed nearly anyone in the village.

Across the road from the ruins, five orange-coloured boats lie in front of a two-storey, weather-worn building, with a sign that reads: “Hondeklip Bay Small Vessel Safety Monitoring Center”, or VMS, where Rulph spends most of his days.

The VMS has two rooms: a first-floor office that contains the monitoring and communication equipment he uses and a small room on the ground floor, which houses orange electronic devices called locators that help track vessels out at sea. Rulph grabs a few locators from the room and hurries back down to the various fishing crews on the beach, handing them out and making meticulous notes in a pocketbook he carries with him.

He makes sure all the boats that leave in the morning return, and when necessary, he guides them home using the Small Vessel Monitoring System, which uses mapping software to track the locators.

Patrick Rulph

As the only person working at the safety centre, Rulph has become indispensable to the small-scale fishers of Hondeklip Bay. Even after a loss of funding meant he stopped being paid to do the job this year, he has continued out of a strong sense of duty to the community.

At the shore, the crews of two or three men assemble, before rowing out to their anchored ski-boats on worn but sound dinghies. After boarding, they fire up their outboard motors and make their way out to sea, skipping on the incoming waves as they leave the harbour mouth one by one.

Hondeklip Bay has a population of about 540 people, according to the latest census in 2022. Rulph estimates that the size of the community is much larger, based on information he has seen at the local clinic, but he maintains that the community remains very close-knit.

Gainful employment is hard to come by. While some residents work for companies that reprocess overburden from diamond mines, most others work for low-paying municipal projects.

Daniel Ruyter, one of the members of the Hondeklip Bay Small-Scale Fishing Cooperative, says that despite only having 27 members, the co-op provides some form of income to 90-100 people. At the height of the annual snoek fishing season, over the Easter period, travelling fishers from all over the Western Cape visit Hondeklip Bay “chasing the snoek”. During their stay, they rent accommodation from community members and many more are given odd jobs such as cleaning fish.

Hondeklip Bay

Hondeklip Bay was established in the mid-1800s to transport copper ore by sea from its natural harbour to other towns in the Northern Cape. Rulph’s grandparents moved there in the early 1900s to work in the commercial fishing industry. His father was a fisherman and his mother worked in the Namaqua Canning Company’s fish factory.

When Rulph grew up during apartheid, he was classified as “coloured”. The racial discrimination was hard to miss, he recalls. While white residents had electricity and piped water in their homes, non-white residents could only collect drinking water from a reservoir in the village on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, they could only access brackish water.

“My friends and I saw it as a chance to earn pocket money. We delivered buckets of water for our neighbours, and they would give us a few cents that we would use to buy sweets and chocolates,” he laughs.

Hondeklip Bay, South Africa

Conditions improved after Nelson Mandela’s African National Congress was voted into power in 1994, with piped water as well as electricity reaching all residents by 1996. Yet, 30 years later, Hondeklip Bay still has no grocery store, petrol station or high school, and the village remains accessible by gravel roads that stretch through past decommissioned diamond mines for tens of kilometres.

Rulph decided to quit high school when he was 16 to start working. After spending one season at the same canning factory as his mother, he began working for diamond companies, first De Beers and then the Trans Hex Group, when he was retrenched after 20 years. Due to the decline in the diamond industry and the collapse of the commercial fishing industry at home, he sought employment in Cape Town but returned after two years.

Fortunately, the Hondeklip Bay VMS and the monitoring system were donated to the village by the Namaqua District Municipality in 2014 and a post was advertised. Rulph got the job.

In the VMS office, which looks out over the ruins of the canning factory, he has a portable short-range radio, a fixed long-range radio, and two screens on which he can see satellite images of as much of the coastline as he wants to see along with the locations of each of the boats carrying the orange devices.

On days when the coastline is covered in dense fog, Rulph has to keep his eyes on his screens, making sure that all the boats are together. At the start, it was very stressful, as the fog tends to interfere with the satellite imagery, but he has since learned to deal with the quirks of the system.

Fishing boats

Rulph recalls one very misty day that could have ended in a disaster. An old fisher went to sea with a young crew member, and when they decided to head home, it was so misty that they ended up arguing about where they were. The young crew member won the argument and thinking they were north of Hondeklip Bay, they headed south. After a while, the old fisher recognised a set of rocks along the shore and realised that they had gone too far south. They had nearly run out of fuel so they headed out into water that was deep enough for them to safely drop anchor and waited for the fog to clear.

Meanwhile, the other fishers that were out with them assuming they had made it home safely were surprised to find them not there. Members of the community built a huge bonfire on the beach hoping that the fishers would see the light from the sea and find their way home.

“I contacted the police and sent two boats with tracking devices out to go and look for them. When the mist cleared at about 11:30pm the old fisher saw that the boats were looking for them, but they didn’t have any way of drawing attention to themselves,” said Rulph.

When the “lost” fishers saw that the rescue boats were heading back home, they decided to row back to Hondeklip Bay.

“They reached the harbour mouth at about 4:30am, they fired up the motor and made it safely to shore. The community was still on the beach when they returned,” says Rulph, with a sense of delayed relief that the worst outcome was avoided.

Reflecting on that situation, Rulph says: “I realised that when the fishers are all at sea together, if a boat leaves, they just assume that it made it safely home, but that isn’t always the case. For that reason, I make sure that I know exactly how many boats go out every morning.”

‘We are making do’

In the decade that Rulph has worked at the safety centre, there have been no instances of fishers drowning at sea in Hondeklip Bay, a statistic he is simultaneously thankful for and proud of.

The Namakwa District Municipality paid Rulph’s salary through an annually renewed contract. But in 2024, his contract was not renewed because of a lack of funds. There is some talk of third parties attempting to secure funding for his position, but there are no concrete plans as yet, he says.

Patrick Rulph

At home, Rulph is the sole breadwinner in his household. His wife and two daughters depend on his state pension. Yet, with the optimism that reveals a deep acknowledgement of the resourcefulness of his community, he says: “We aren’t hungry, we aren’t cold. We are making do.”

And even without a salary, over the last few months, he has continued to perform the role he was once paid to do, in service of the community he has been a part of for six decades.

“Patrick’s work is important. He does it well. We don’t have to ask him to do it, or look for him, he’s always ready,” says Daniel Ruyter, who has known Rulph nearly all his life and has been his friend for decades.

Ruyter has been fishing for over 50 years and knows the surrounding coastline better than almost anyone. Yet he says that even he has been in situations where, due to the thick fog, he got lost while trying to make his way home, instead ending up in a different bay.

“We don’t all have GPS systems. And without the radios, our only means of communication from the sea is our mobile phones. If something out there happens you have to hope that you can access the network,” he said.

Indicating the value of Rulph’s dependability and the value of his work, Ruyter says: “Now we have radios, and we know that if we need help, Patrick will be ready to help us.”

Rulph’s service-oriented approach extends beyond just his profession, and his neighbours say it’s something that comes naturally to him. Ruyter says that when catches are good during the snoek season, Rulph goes around to the fishers asking them to donate some fish to poorer families in the community, before distributing the donations himself.

Patrick Rulph

It’s the same compassion to help those in need that guides his tireless unpaid work at the VMS.

“I understand the risks and the dangers of going to sea,” Rulph says in a lowered voice that conveys the seriousness with which he views his work. “Tomorrow someone could drown just because they didn’t have a locator and there was no one to guide them in. It would be a life that could have been saved.”

Fishing is the only gainful employment in the village, he says, and there are no other vocational opportunities for young men other than to become fishermen.

“My son is also a fisherman. Just as I care about my son, there are other parents that feel the same way about their children,” Rulph adds.

For as long as he is able, he is committed to continuing to shepherd Hondeklip Bay’s fishers home, making sure none get left behind.

“I believe if I bless others, then I will be blessed as well,” he says with a satisfied smile.

Sea Bold96' C. Raymond Hunt / New England Boatworks 2003

$ 2,850,000

"Sea Bold" is a custom-built, one-of-one unique motor yacht, styled in a form-follows-function classic design often associated with vessels designed by C. Raymond Hunt in New Bedford, Massachusetts. She was built by the amazing team at New England Boatworks in Portsmouth, Rhode Island in 2003, and she is both stylish in design and elegant in nature, while engineered for the serious yachtsman who plans to cruise and enjoy this fine motor yacht in a variety of locations.

Originally constructed in 2003, she received a refit in 2019-2020. She is built of Kevlar and Carbon Fiber advanced composite construction for structural integrity and light weight, making her very strong. She has excellent seakeeping abilities due to her construction, along with her deep vee hull design. She has only ever been in private use, and has never been chartered. 

She is capable of a fast cruising speed of 22 knots, and a top speed of 25 knots. Slower cruising is enjoyable as time permits, and her economy is very good for a vessel of her size. She is maintained by her full-time captain/engineer and a full-time stew, so she is in very, very nice condition overall.

Vessel Overview & Layout

Stepping aboard  Sea Bold , you are immediately struck by the classic lines and heavy construction of this fine motor yacht. Her designers engineered her to be cruised, and not simply as a harbor queen. Heavy handholds, proper storage areas for all of her gear, good lighting, and quality construction using the best materials are easily seen throughout. 

Her enclosed pilothouse is climate controlled, and her bridge was designed in the same manner as many large ships - excellent sight lines, an easy to interpret electronics layout, and quality Stidd seating make it a wonderful spot to enjoy for both the captain and guests. There is a day head aft to starboard with a large TV forward, a large chart table, a settee to port with office area aft, and a door out to the aft bridge deck. Aft of the enclosed pilothouse is a wonderful outdoor entertainment area with seating and a table to port, opposite a countertop with TV, sink, and cold storage below. Moving further aft brings you to the area that is used to store the tender when underway, along with the lift rafts. Access to the bridge is from either the internal staircase, or from the cockpit stairs.

The main level offers wide side decks with handholds where you would expect them. Anchor handling is forward with windlass and storage under the deck. As you move aft, there is additional storage within a few compartments in the coachroof. Her side decks are symmetrical in dimension, and allow safe and easy passage. There are two side doors to access the interior of the main dining area. Moving further aft there is additional storage just before the rear entertainment space. The aft entertainment space is separated into to different areas, allowing for guests to enjoy separate conversations without speaking over one another. There are three beautiful wooden deck chairs aft which overlook the stern and stern steps down to the oversized swim platform. Forward of those chairs is additional built-in storage, including an area to store some longer items. Moving further forward brings you to the exterior entertainment area with a full dining table and seating for 6-8. Forward to port is an electric grill, sink, TV, and lots of storage. Opposite to starboard is the aft ladder up to the bridge deck.

Stepping inside from the entertainment area leads you in to the warm and welcoming main salon. The salon is dressed in neutral colors and warm fabrics, making her a very inviting place to spend time with family and friends. Much of the interior has what many would refer to as a "Herreshoff style" interior, meaning that it is very light and airy, and has some wonderful varnished wood accents throughout. Also of note - you have a full 360 degree view to the outside from anywhere inside the main level of this vessel. Two large settees sit opposite each other, and there is custom wine storage below a couple of the settees and table. There is a bar forward on the starboard side as well. A large television can swivel out to enjoy while lounging in the salon, and there is a counter with storage below, along with dual refrigerators. Stairs to starboard lead up to the bridge.

Moving further forward brings you to the main dining area. A comfortable table with ample seating, lots of natural light, and the ability to open up the side doors to enjoy a nice breeze make this an ideal place to enjoy a meal in the company of good friends.

Forward of the dining area is the raised office/library area which has a desk, table, and upholstered chair. This is a great spot to curl up and enjoy a good book while still enjoying the beautiful natural light coming in through the large windows.

Sea Bold  was designed to accommodate eight guests in four staterooms. They are all accessed off of a foyer which is down the steps to starboard in the salon. The Master & VIP staterooms each sleep two guests, and they are a mirror of one another, conjoined in the center. They each have a separate ensuite head with separate stall shower. Beautiful varnished wood make up the berths, drawers, cabinets, and storage spaces. The two additional staterooms are forward off of the foyer and allow sleeping for four guests. There is a shared head with separate stall shower off of the foyer for these two staterooms.

Access to the galley and crew cabins is to starboard of the raised office/library off of the dining area. As you step down into this area, there is a settee and table to starboard with stacked washer & dryer on the aft bulkhead. Galley extends out to port, and there is a large refrigerator aft. Further to port is the U-shaped galley, which has a full suite of appliances for the chef to enjoy. Ample storage is found throughout. 

Forward of the galley, there are two crew cabins each with two bunks, and each with their own head. Both hanging and drawer storage may be found throughout.

Engine room is accessed via two deck hatches - one just aft of the salon door, and the other is from the aft deck near the varnished seats. Engine room is full height, which allows for easy maintenance, care, and repairs to all of the mechanical systems.
