About This Vessel

This 1999 Little Harbor 44 WhisperJet, measures 44 ft, and is located in Bristol, Rhode Island, powered by 2x Yanmar 420.00HP.

VELOURIA is a well-maintained example of Ted Hood’s WhisperJet 44 series. Powered by twin Hamilton water jets and two Yanmar 440HP diesels, she boasts a 2’6” draft with no underwater appendages that can be damaged in a grounding or fouled by fishing gear. This makes her a terrific boat for cruising shallow waters or coastal areas where lobster pots and other floating hazards can be a major concern.  With a quality of finish that is only found in the best custom yachts VELOURIA’s interior has been crafted in varnished cherry and teak woods with Herreshoff  style white bulkheads. A large centerline queen berth forward, spacious well-appointed galley and a comfortable bridge deck make for an easy and accommodating liveaboard experience.  VELOURIA is spending the winter 2024/2025 in heated storage in Bristol, RI.  It is offered as a convenience by this broker/dealer to its clients and is
