"Silent Knight" is a true blue water sailboat! She has made numerous Atlantic Ocean crossings from the USA to Europe and back; having just completed her last voyage December, 2014.

The interior is beautiful cherrywood throughout. She sleeps 4 comfortably in 2 pilot berths & a double quarter berth. In addition, the dinette is convertible to additional berth, if needed. The full Galley is to port with electric stove/oven, front loading refrigerator, enclosed head and separate shower stall.

This Cherubini has a wonderful successful history. If you are a true sailor or want to be, you must see this beautiful Cherubini.
