Built during CSY's productive years in the 1980s, this mid-cockpit variant of the CSY 44 represents a thoughtful adaptation of the yard's popular 44-foot platform. The mid-cockpit configuration creates a more protected helm position while opening up additional interior space aft, typically used for a generous owner's cabin with private head access. CSY's reputation for building solid, seaworthy cruising boats carries forward in this design. The moderate displacement hull and traditional long keel configuration prioritize directional stability and comfortable motion over racing performance, making this boat well-suited for extended coastal cruising and offshore passages. The mid-cockpit layout particularly appeals to couples seeking privacy and comfort during longer voyages. Like other CSY models from this era, the 44 Mid Cockpit features robust fiberglass construction with generous beam for interior volume. The raised deck saloon configuration typical of CSY designs maximizes headroom and natural light below while maintaining good visibility from the helm. While these boats may not win races, they've earned respect among cruising sailors for their reliability, comfortable accommodations, and ability to handle challenging conditions with confidence.
- Prices are based on recent asking prices from public listings — not actual sale prices, which are typically lower.
- Condition is not factored in. A well-maintained boat with new sails and engine can be worth significantly more than a project boat of the same model.
- Location affects price. Boats in landlocked states or areas with fewer buyers often sell for less than those on the coast.
- Year of manufacture is not filtered. Older examples of this model will generally be priced lower than newer ones.
- Included equipment varies widely. A boat with a full suite of electronics, dodger, and new standing rigging may command a large premium.
- Outliers are automatically excluded using statistical filtering to improve accuracy, but some bad data may remain.
