Discover Coastal Bliss Aboard "Sushi" - Your Upgraded 1982 Lycrest 41 Flybridge Cruiser

Price: AU $149,000 (or nearest offer)
Location: Yamba, NSW - Ready for Clarence River Escapades and Beyond

Picture this: Gliding effortlessly along the pristine Clarence River or anchoring off Yamba's golden beaches, where the salty breeze meets panoramic sunsets from your shaded flybridge. Meet "Sushi", a meticulously maintained 1982 Lycrest 41 Flybridge Cruiser that's been lovingly upgraded for modern adventurers. Built by the renowned Taiwanese Hershine yard (rebranded as Lycrest for Aussie waters), this 41-foot GRP beauty combines timeless trawler elegance with robust seaworthiness--perfect for leisurely cruises, family outings, fishing trips to Iluka, or liveaboard dreams. With a wide 13.5-foot beam for rock-solid stability and a shallow 3.5-foot draft, she's tailor-made for NSW's coastal playground, from Byron Bay jaunts to extended offshore legs.

Unmatched Power & Efficiency: Twin Volvo Penta TMD40 Diesels
At the heart of "Sushi" are her twin turbocharged Volvo TMD40 engines--each delivering 130 HP of smooth, reliable torque. Fully refurbished with a whopping ~800 hours since a AU $50,000 major overhaul, these workhorses ensure trouble-free performance whether you're idling at anchor or pushing to 9-10 knots.
*Cruising Sweet Spot: At ~2,300 RPM, expect 7.5-8.5 knots of efficient displacement speed, sipping just 10-12 liters per hour per engine (20-24 L/h total) under typical loads--thanks to the TMD40's stellar 210 g/kWh specific fuel consumption.
*Epic Range: Paired with her upgraded 800-litre stainless steel diesel tanks, that's a jaw-dropping 550-600 nautical miles on a full tank at cruise (factoring in a safe 20% reserve). Ideal for non-stop runs from Yamba to the Solitary Islands or weekend warriors who hate refueling stops.

A recently added bow thruster makes docking in Yamba Marina a breeze, even in crosswinds.
"Sushi" isn't just a boat--she's a floating home, where the current owners have poured seven years of liveaboard passion into smart, practical enhancements:

*Galley & Comforts: Brand-new eutectic fridge compressor, Breville smart oven, and 240V hot water system for chef-inspired meals with harbor views. Dual updated pumps keep the freshwater and heads flowing flawlessly. Power Independence: A whisper-quiet 6.5 kVA Onan genset delivers 240V whenever you're off-grid, powering everything from air-con to coffee makers.

*Storage & Durability: Fresh stainless steel tanks (freshwater and diesel) banish corrosion worries, while the upper teak deck has been fully replaced for that classic shine.

*Outdoor Oasis: Spacious flybridge under a full canopy for shaded helming or sundowners, plus a stern davit for your tender--launch and beach-hop to hidden coves with ease. Inside, two cabins sleep 6-8 in teak-trimmed comfort, with a roomy salon and versatile layout for guests or gear.

Weighing in at ~25,000 lbs dry, her semi-displacement hull slices through chop like butter, offering a dry, stable ride that belies her age.

* Proven Pedigree
"Sushi" (registered UF667N) is survey-ready and turnkey, no deferred maintenance--just a vessel that's cruised thousands of coastal miles and emerged stronger. As a Lycrest 41 (sister to the Hershine 41), she's famed among trawler fans for bulletproof build quality, low running costs (under 1.5 L/NM at cruise), and that rare blend of vintage charm and go-anywhere grit. Owners on Trawler Forum call her "the poor man's Grand Banks"--affordable reliability without the premium sticker shock.

The present owners are reluctantly parting ways after seven blissful years aboard, trading hull for horizon on their next quest. At AU $149,000, she's a steal for a fully upgraded, single-owner-care icon--flexible terms available, including cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, XRP and more) for savvy buyers. Whether you're a retiree eyeing Clarence sunsets, a family plotting Yamba-to-Brisbane loops, or an angler chasing kingfish off the reefs, "Sushi" delivers the range, space, and soul to make it happen.
