Soggy Paws, the CSY

Hull# TXY44W351280, Doc #637334 Hailing Port: Marathon FL. Dave purchased Soggy Paws (ex Laissez Faire) in June 1996 from a private owner who had had it in charter since 1981 with ABC Charters in the Bahamas. It was well worn and in need of a total refit, but it was the right boat and the price was right. Below is a listing of improvements
that have been made to the boat to help make it safe and comfortable
for an around the world voyage. Also, at the bottom there is a
list of Walk Through specifications.

The CSY 44 Walk Through is a sought after boat, mainly because of its walkthrough configuration--you can move from the main cabin to the aft cabin without going up into the cockpit. While this design sacrifices some cockpit space in order to add the below decks walkway from the main salon to the master stateroom it is seen by many as a fair trade. It is a comfortable cockpit with ample room for guest visiting and there are two longitudinal bench seats long enough for sleeping. Other differences from the Walk Over include a stand up engine room with workbench, a main cabin navigation station/table, a side loading refrig/freezer, and the galley located in the starboard passageway leading aft. Many of these boats were outfitted with a large fiberglass box on the stern deck suitable for fuel and gas storage. The after section of the main cabin coach roof is raised adding headroom below and increasing visibility through 4 large windows. Most Walk Throughs were delivered with shoal draft and tall mast. The normal rig configuration was a cutter with a few rigged as Cutter / Ketches. All of the WT masts were in the cutter position and if a ketch a mizzen would be added onto the aft deck with the boom extending far astern.
