“This well-made French cruiser has a fairly contemporary underbody and is strong enough to venture offshore. Finding one is the problem.” Practical Sailor. The Pretorien 35 is a go-anywhere design that offers excellent value and a quality of construction that rivals that of some of the finest production boats in the world. She is a proven blue-water pedigree, famously endorsed by cruising gurus Hal Roth and Bob Ketchmer. Wauquiez is known for superior interior joinery and woodwork that exceeds modern standards. An exceptional sailing vessel, her balanced and predictable handling in heavy weather are notable especially considering her 35 foot length. Sojourn is an excellent example and is now available. Sojourn has been loved, maintained and upgraded by her knowledgeable owner. She is in exceptional condition and is now available for showing by appointment.

The Pretorien is built for ocean sailing. The hull is solid fiberglass and has six full-length longitudinal stringers that stiffen the panels and encapsulate the bulkheads although this IOR influenced design may appear a little dated, the Pretorien 35 is a go-anywhere design that offers excellent value and a quality of construction that rivals that of some of the finest production boats in the world. Many of the construction features, such as the six longitudinal stiffeners that run the entire length of the hull and the unique method of bulkhead attachment, are not readily apparent to the casual observer. But, you need to look no further than inside lockers to see the care the builder has taken to create a remarkably smooth, exceptional quality finish. Bridging the gap between traditional IOR era aesthetics and the modern demand for robust offshore performance. Designed by the British firm Holman & Pye and built in Neuvilleen Ferrain, France, the Pretorien 35 earned a reputation as a "bulletproof" cruiser capable of transoceanic passage making.
