Construction and Features of Hull & Deck
CONSTRUCTION
The Passport 470 is built around a proven bluewater hull form that emphasizes strength, balance, and long-range comfort. The hull is hand-laid solid fiberglass below the waterline, eliminating the risk of core saturation in high-load or impact-prone areas. Above the waterline, a closed-cell foam core is used to reduce weight aloft while maintaining excellent stiffness and thermal insulation.
Construction is executed using premium vinylester resins throughout the laminate schedule, providing superior resistance to osmotic blistering and long-term structural integrity. The laminate is heavily reinforced in high-stress areas including the keel sump, mast step, chainplate zones, rudder tube, and engine beds. Longitudinal and transverse fiberglass stringers are fully bonded to the hull, creating a rigid monocoque structure designed to handle offshore loads and repeated sea states.
The hull-to-deck joint is a robust, inward-turning flange that is mechanically fastened and chemically bonded, then glassed over from the inside—one of the strongest methods used in yacht construction. This joint contributes significantly to the vessel’s torsional stiffness and offshore durability.
A moderate-displacement hull with a fine entry, balanced underbody, and moderate beam provides a smooth motion at sea, predictable tracking, and excellent performance across a wide range of conditions. The keel is externally bolted with substantial stainless keel bolts engineered to distribute grounding loads into the reinforced keel structure. The semi-balanced rudder is fully supported by a heavy-duty rudder stock and reinforced bearings, delivering responsive helm feel with redundancy and strength appropriate for passagemaking.
Overall, the Passport 470’s hull construction reflects a clear focus on offshore reliability, longevity, and thoughtful engineering—hallmarks of the Passport brand and key reasons these yachts have earned a reputation as serious cruising sailboats capable of extended bluewater use.

Broker's Comments
EOS stands out as a Passport 470 that has been owned, cruised, and upgraded with purpose. This is not a lightly used dockside boat, nor is it a project—she reflects years of thoughtful stewardship by owners who understood what it takes to keep a serious cruising yacht properly prepared.
Over the past several seasons, EOS has benefited from a meaningful refit and systems modernization focused on reliability, redundancy, and offshore functionality. New Quantum sails, updated navigation and communications electronics, a comprehensively serviced generator, upgraded battery banks, expanded solar capacity, Starlink connectivity, and refreshed safety gear combine to make her exceptionally turnkey for extended cruising or immediate departure.
The Passport 470 Center Cockpit remains one of the most respected bluewater cruising designs of her generation, offering a rare combination of offshore performance, protected cockpit, excellent sea berths, and a warm, practical interior layout. EOS benefits from this proven platform while avoiding the deferred maintenance and outdated systems often found on comparable boats.
She is well equipped, well documented, and sensibly priced within the Passport market. For buyers seeking a capable offshore cruiser that has already received the major upgrades—rather than one requiring years of catch-up—EOS represents an outstanding opportunity.
