Tom Fexas US Naval architect designed Sportscruiser, built in collaboration with highly respected Cheoy Lee shipyards, who have been building commercial vessels for over 150 years, and continues on today under the same family ownership, trading as the luxury brand CL Yachts. Cheoy Lees reputation for solid construction comes from its commercial background, where even their smaller pleasure cruisers were built as scaled down ships. Only a hand full of the Tom Fexas designed 42 flybridge models made their way to Australia, and the vessel stands out in the crowd, attracting favourable comments from seasoned boaters that know them. The classic styling with raised sheer line, and Carolina flared bow, cuts through the ocean with ease.
Offering excellent value with over 120k recently spent in mechanical, electrical and shipwright upgrades, all carried out by professional trades, with receipts and invoices available on inspection.
Detailed maintenance, in 2023 "Condor" underwent major service including full specialist rebuild of diesel injectors on the twin turbo Cummins, plus exterior cut and polish, hull and topsides and full detail throughout. December 23 "Condor" was antifouled including prop speed to shafts and propellers, all anodes replaced, and all through hull seals checked and antifouled. See Video enclosed. The 15 hp Yamaha for the 3m aluminium bottom Sirocco tender and the 350 kg Davco winch were also serviced, including new stainless davit cable, along with Onan genset, new freshwater pump installed, 12 inch Raymarine Hybrid touch screen in flybridge helm added, with brand new Raymarine through hull transducer installed Nov 23.
April 2024 annual mechanical service completed including genset, plus electrical upgrades added including installation of solar, inverter, new batteries and battery management system, new cabling and electrical safety check. Rear flood lights added, windlass service, including new foot switch, and and new remote windlass chain counter installed in top helm. The interiors retain its retro originality, excluding new tap ware, with its teak porthole feature windows and granite kitchen fitout, and hasn't been tricked up for sale. Condor had previously benefited from former skilled marine industry ownership upgrades, with hull being stripped back, lifting strakes added, and full Awlgrip respray by the former owner who operated a well known marine abrasion business. The twin turbo Cummins were also upgraded, with 405 hrs showing on new gauges.
Solid sea kindly hull with wide 4.26 m - 14 ft beam, offers great stability. Game poles and and ultra generous 11.148 sqm - (110 sq ft) uncluttered teak cockpit fishing space, with half rear shade canopy plus cockpit covers. Will allow a group of mates to fish comfortably, or simply plenty of open rear cockpit space for entertaining a group of friends or watching fireworks.
Owners only selling to move up to larger liveaboard passage maker / trawler, and will consider trades.
Marina berth at Brooklyn available - reasonable rates, parking, and great sheltered cruising grounds of Hawkesbury / Pittwater / Brisbane Waters.
2023 out of water survey available - no osmosis.
If your looking for the latest faux leather and plastic interiors, then Condor is not for you. If you want a classic, solidly built and stable sea boat, that will allow comfortable family cruising with generous fishing and entertaining cockpit space, then inspection by appointment is welcomed.
