1961 Bay Cruiser 50 - Converted Timber Trawler
AU $125,000 - Horizon Shores Marina, QLD

Step aboard this Bay Cruiser 50, a classic 1961 timber trawler thoughtfully converted into a spacious and practical liveaboard cruiser. With an overall length of 15.85m, a generous 4.9m beam, and a robust timber plank hull with fibreglass sheathing below the waterline, she combines traditional craftsmanship with modern upgrades.

Powered by a dependable Gardner 5LW diesel (78HP) with SeaStar hydraulic steering, she cruises economically at 4-6LPH around 1500rpm, and is a breeze to manoeuvre with bow and stern jet thrusters.

Over the years, a significant amount of money has been invested into her refit, including new tanks, electrical systems, and equipment. Due to unfortunate circumstances, she now requires some finishing work, making her an excellent opportunity for a new owner to complete and truly make their own.

Contact Regan on for an inspection.
