The story of Isobar spans over six decades, multiple oceans, and just four dedicated owners. Built in 1962 at the Cheoy Lee Shipyard in Hong Kong, this 45’ full-keel sloop was designed by Les and Don Harlander, who raced her in the 1963 and 1965 TransPac races. She was later sold to Richard Steinke, who lived aboard her for 32 years, sailing across the Atlantic multiple times, cruising through the Mediterranean, Baltic, and Southeast Asia, and encountering everything from Russian gunboats to cigarette smugglers. Richard’s adventurous spirit led Isobar through a rich history of global exploration until his passing in 2003, when ownership transferred to the current owners, his daughter and husband.Over the years, Isobar endured major refits and renovations, particularly after a hurricane-induced dismasting, a devastating tsunami in Malaysia, and the inevitable wear of time. After being returned to the US in 2006, she underwent an extensive three-year restoration, followed by further structural upgrades in 2020 and 2024. With a new mast, rigging, deck repairs, and navigation upgrades, she remains seaworthy and ready for new adventures. Despite the challenges, Isobar’s legacy continues, embodying resilience, craftsmanship, and the enduring love of sailing.
