Renown for their stable ride, and economical performance, they are ideal for anything from local family cruising through to extended coastal passages. This vessel is a superb example of the design and is currently owned by a commercial skipper who has been fastidious in the vessel's care and maintenance. Under his ownership the vessel has been significantly upgraded including IMPRESSIVE MODIFICATION OF THE FORWARD ACCOMMODATION TO PROVIDE A TRUE OWNER'S MASTER SUITE, NEW HARD BIMINI AND FLYBRIDGE CLEARS, TOPSIDES REPAINTED, MOST SKIN FITTINGS REPLACED, CAULKING IN THE TEAK DECKS RE-DONE, NEW VACCUFLUSH ELECTRIC TOILET WITH HOLDING TANK, MAJOR OVERHAUL OF BOTH ENGINES (BY HUGHES MARINE), NEW 800L WATER TANK, NEW BATTERIES, the list goes on! Having enjoyed an extended cruise from Hobart up the NSW coast and back over winter, the vessel's certainly proven its reliability and capability. Presenting in excellent condition, it offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a vessel of this calibre with all the hard work already done. Whether you want to cruise locally with family and friends, fulfil more ambitious cruising aspirations, or utilise the vessels superb accommodation to enjoy the liveaboard lifestyle, this is a vessel that can do it all in style and comfort!
Stepping inside, the traditional timber trims, panoramic visibility, and clean white finishes create a light and welcoming ambience. To port is a folding leaf dinette with seating for 6 in comfort on the neatly upholstered settees. Forward is the well appointed galley, featuring a 12V fridge/freezer, gas and electric cook top, electric oven, stainless steel sink with H/C pressurised water, and plenty of storage for extended cruising. Opposite is the interior helm station. This is ideal for cruising in any climate with the added comfort of the Webasto Diesel Heater. It is also includes a full suite of quality navigation equipment including Chart plotter with AIS, Radar, Coursemaster Autopilot, and VHF Radio. Just a few easy steps down leads to the extended master suite. This has been modified from the original two cabin layout, to create a single spacious suite with a Queen berth to port (with NEW mattress), two single berths forward which convert to a double, and a spacious ensuite complete with NEW toilet, hip-bath/shower, and vanity. The saloon settee also easily converts to a double berth when additional accommodation is required.
Outside, the walk around decks provide excellent security when moving around the vessel. The generous flybridge is an exceptional space to relax, entertain, or keep watch on a nice day. This area has been significantly upgraded with flexi-teak foam decking and quality clears. The fully functional helm station is equipped with repeaters for the navigation instruments and its own VHF radio.
This vessel is powered by twin 6 Cylinder Ford Lehman Diesel Engines with only 400hrs on the clock since a professional overhaul was completed. These offer true reliability and excellent performance using only 12LPH cruising at 8 knots.
With all the boxes ticked, this impressive vessel is one not to miss. Having received a glowing report when last surveyed (October 2024) confirming its condition and capability, it is ready to be enjoyed. For more information please call Jo Breen on or Jack Allison on .
