Broker Remarks
Glen-L Reliant 49 — Bluewater Ketch — 2008
Rogue Trader is a beautiful Glen-L Reliant 49, designed by Jim Benge and professionally built by an Irish shipyard, with her structural work and early fit-out undertaken by professional craftsmen under regular Lloyd’s inspection. Completed and launched in 2008, she was constructed in cold-moulded wood and professionally sheathed in fibreglass, combining the warmth and character of traditional timber construction with the practical advantages of a glass-sheathed hull.
At 15.75 metres, her classic lines, substantial proportions and purposeful ketch rig give her a strong and unmistakable presence. Her long keel and naturally balanced rig provide the steady, reassuring qualities associated with traditional ocean-going yachts, while her generous volume makes her equally well suited to extended cruising or life afloat.
A proven blue-water cruiser with two Atlantic crossings to her credit, Rogue Trader was purchased by her current owners in 2021 and sailed by them from Ireland to the Mediterranean, subsequently cruising thousands of nautical miles from Sardinia along the Amalfi Coast and, more recently, around Corsica and the French Riviera. She has benefited from committed and conscientious ownership, with continuous investment in her upkeep, maintenance and presentation.
With generous space for additional equipment and systems, Rogue Trader offers an adaptable platform for her next owner — whether the ambition is further ocean passages, extended Mediterranean cruising or simply enjoying the freedom of life afloat.
A beautiful, genuinely ocean-proven yacht with traditional character, professional construction and a remarkable cruising story — ready for her next chapter.

Glen-L Reliant 49 — Ketch de grande croisière — 2008
Rogue Trader est un superbe Glen-L Reliant 49, dessiné par Jim Benge et construit professionnellement par un chantier naval irlandais, avec sa structure et les premières étapes de son aménagement réalisées par des professionnels sous inspections régulières de Lloyd’s. Achevé et mis à l’eau en 2008, il a été construit en bois moulé à froid et professionnellement stratifié de fibre de verre, associant la chaleur et le caractère de la construction traditionnelle en bois aux avantages pratiques d’une coque stratifiée.
Avec ses 15,75 mètres, ses lignes classiques, ses proportions généreuses et son gréement de ketch lui confèrent une présence forte et immédiatement reconnaissable. Sa longue quille et son gréement naturellement équilibré offrent les qualités de stabilité et de sérénité recherchées sur les yachts traditionnels de grande croisière, tandis que ses volumes généreux la rendent parfaitement adaptée aux longues navigations comme à la vie à bord.
Véritable yacht de grande croisière, avec deux traversées de l’Atlantique à son actif, Rogue Trader a été acheté par ses propriétaires actuels en 2021 et navigué par eux de l’Irlande jusqu’en Méditerranée, parcourant ensuite plusieurs milliers de milles nautiques depuis la Sardaigne, le long de la côte amalfitaine et, plus récemment, autour de la Corse et de la Côte d’Azur. Elle a bénéficié d’un propriétaire attentif et consciencieux, avec des investissements constants dans son entretien, sa maintenance et sa présentation.
Avec ses espaces généreux permettant l’installation d’équipements et de systèmes supplémentaires, Rogue Trader offre à son prochain propriétaire une plateforme particulièrement adaptable — pour de nouvelles traversées océaniques, de longues croisières en Méditerranée ou simplement pour profiter pleinement de la liberté de la vie en mer.
Un superbe yacht, véritablement éprouvé au large, réunissant caractère traditionnel, construction professionnelle et une remarquable histoire de navigation — prêt pour son prochain chapitre.

Glen-L Reliant 49 — Ketch da grande crociera — 2008
Rogue Trader è un bellissimo Glen-L Reliant 49, progettato da Jim Benge e costruito professionalmente da un cantiere navale irlandese, con la struttura e le prime fasi dell’allestimento realizzate da professionisti sotto regolari ispezioni Lloyd’s. Completato e varato nel 2008, è stato costruito in legno lamellare stampato a freddo e professionalmente rivestito in vetroresina, combinando il calore e il carattere della tradizionale costruzione in legno con i vantaggi pratici di uno scafo rivestito in vetroresina.
Con i suoi 15,75 metri, le linee classiche, le proporzioni generose e il caratteristico armo a ketch le conferiscono una presenza forte e inconfondibile. La lunga chiglia e l’armo naturalmente equilibrato offrono le qualità di stabilità e comfort tipiche dei tradizionali yacht da grande crociera, mentre gli ampi volumi la rendono ideale sia per lunghe navigazioni sia per vivere a bordo.
Un autentico yacht da grande crociera, con due traversate dell’Atlantico al suo attivo, Rogue Trader è stata acquistata dagli attuali armatori nel 2021 e da loro navigata dall’Irlanda fino al Mediterraneo, percorrendo successivamente migliaia di miglia nautiche dalla Sardegna lungo la Costiera Amalfitana e, più recentemente, intorno alla Corsica e lungo la Costa Azzurra. Ha beneficiato di armatori attenti e scrupolosi, con investimenti costanti nella sua manutenzione, cura e presentazione.
Grazie agli ampi spazi disponibili per l’installazione di ulteriori equipaggiamenti e sistemi, Rogue Trader offre al suo prossimo armatore una piattaforma estremamente versatile — per nuove traversate oceaniche, lunghe crociere nel Mediterraneo o semplicemente per godere della libertà della vita in mare.
Un bellissimo yacht, realmente collaudato in mare aperto, che unisce carattere tradizionale, costruzione professionale e una straordinaria storia di navigazione — pronto per il suo prossimo capitolo.
