Truly turn key ready live a board, set up for off grid adventures, If you are Interested please contact me and I can send you a Detailed spec sheet with lots of information about the vessel, it's too much to list on here but here is a short run down.
Fair Dinkum 2 has been my home for the past two years, Cruising the east coast. I'm currently still living on her with the intention of selling this year and upgrading. Makes an epic first buy for single handed or couple wanting to enjoy the live-a-board lifestyle. It will be sold ready to move aboard with just your bag of clothes, its truly turn key ready. Recently antifouled (April-26) and stuffing box replaced at last slipping, I have also recently upgraded the solar to 700w and installed a water maker able to produce 80l/hr running off the 3000w inverter. With plenty of fridge space (170l) and two 30l freezers its quiet comfortable living off grid for a 35ft vessel. 480 amp hr of lithium house battery, A brand new starting battery plus a spare deep cycle battery it has plenty of power and back up options.
Also recently replaced Anchor with a brand new Delta and new 70m chain.
I have built up a very good spares kit kept on board including, brand new alternator, brand new raw water pump, rebuilt exhaust elbow, auto pilot motor and belts, plus lots of engine spares. I brought this vessel off a young couple who also lived aboard for two years that took exceptional care and put a lot of upgrades in 2024 listed below. I'm currently sailing between Airlie beach and Carins happy to answer any questions and do walk-throughs with serious buyers. I would also be open to delivering the yacht down south to an area out of the 'cyclone' area towards the end of the year if that is something the buyer wanted.
