The Ta Chiao 56 CT is a beautifully built, heavy-displacement center-cockpit ketch, designed for long-distance cruising in comfort and safety. Built by the renowned Ta Chiao Shipyard in Taiwan, she combines classic lines and solid construction with generous interior volume and elegant teak joinery.
She underwent a comprehensive refit in 2020, including extensive upgrades to systems, and interior finishes, presenting her today in excellent condition and ready for bluewater adventures.
Her layout features a spacious full-beam aft owner’s cabin with ensuite, two forward double guest cabins sharing a large head with shower, a bright and comfortable main saloon, and a well-equipped U-shaped galley ideal for extended cruising. The secure center cockpit, wide side decks, and versatile ketch rig ensure safe and manageable handling in all conditions.
A true ocean-going classic — offering timeless style, reliability, and liveaboard comfort.
