Cruise Royale 44
Description
The Cruise Royale 44 is a lesser-known but well-regarded cruising sailboat, designed by Danish naval architect Jan Kjaerulff (known for practical, seaworthy designs in the 1970s–1990s era, including various European pocket and mid-size cruisers). It's a moderate-displacement fiberglass cruiser built by Ree Marine (a Danish or European yard, with limited production; some references tie it to Ree or similar small custom builders). The model appears in sail data resources like Sailrite and sailboat databases, often as a semi-custom or limited-run boat from the late 20th century.
