General

At first glance the Baba 30 seems to be a small and traditional sailboat, but with a little time on board you'll soon realize that this full-keeled cutter has some serious and proven bluewater cruising capabilities. This particular boat has been meticulously maintained and cared for while also boasting a handful of updated features to ensure that cruising aboard Sojourn is a comfortable and enjoyable day on the water. Whether you're navigating at the helm or down below resting in the V-berth, this Baba 30 was designed for comfort, safety and maintaining a tasteful interior to fully enhance your time on board.

Engine

The main engine on Sojourn is a Yanamr 3GM20F diesel engine which has been meticulously maintained and as a result is a reliable "turn-key" motor. While the official engine hours are unknown, the current owners estimate that they have accumulated around 400 hours since completing some significant upgrades and preventative maintenance on the system itself.

The boat offers a 3 blade feathering "featherstream" prop option as well which was recently greased with featherstream grease as well as adding a new prop zinc 

A full & current list of maintenance records regarding all systems of the boat is available upon request.

Interior

As you enter the cabin of Sojourn, the overall first impression is one of cleanliness and pride in caring for and maintaining such a beautiful boat. 

Immediately to port as you descend the cabin steps is the small but efficient galley. It offers a gimballed stove/oven, dual basin sink and a fair sized isotherm refridgeration system built into the countertop.There is an excess of storage above, below, and behind all of the main features of the galley which can allow for an enhanced cooking experience. 

Coming down the cabin stairs, directly to starboard you will notice a neat and essential plotting station. You can find access to a single VHF here, controls to the boat's stereo system, the full breaker system and storage as well as having a place large enough to plot a course on your chart. On the starboard aft bulkhead there is a larger "wet" hanging storage locker right next to the cabin steps. To starboard of the hanging locker and aft of the plotting station is the boats quarter berth as well.

In the center of the cabin you will find a small table with two hinged wings which allow it to more than double in size and accommodate the port and starboard settee's. The port settee is 6' long and actually extends in width while the starboard settee is a respectable 50". Above and below each settee offer multiple storage options on either side.

Starboard side and just forward of the starboard settee is the wet head. It's compact in size but offers everything needed for comfort and is in a pleasantly clean state.

All the way forward and spanning the beam of the boat, you can find the oversized and comfortable V Berth. There is a large storage locker to port just infront of the V-berth as well as matching storage areas on either side of the V berth mattress.

Throughout the entire interior you can find updated LED accent lighting, 12v fans and a number of portholes and hatches. The amount of natural light coming into the boat is refreshing and the ventilhation of the hatches allows to keep the boat at a nice cool temperature.

 

 

Deck

At first glance as you walk aboard Sojourn, you notice the abundance of teak which has been well maintained over the years as well as the air of pride in which the boat has been kept overall from its current owners. Every hatch and accessory on board is properly and neatly covered with custom matching canvass as well as a newer bimini and dodger.

The helm offers a comfortable and roomy space to navigate from as well as lounging on the custom matching seat cushions.

There is ample storage below the helm seating as well as the gas tank for the stove and oven in the galley.

The navigation station boasts newer updated chart-plotter/GPS (raymarine e-series HybridTouch) which is capable of linking with wifi enabled tablets or smartphones. 

Overall, the deck paint is in great condition and the teak shows very well. Obviously varnishing is a forever ongoing process but the current condition does not require too much work.
