Minggat is a 1973 Islander 36. These boats are sought after for their performance and strength of design. The skeg hung rudder is popular with cruisers.

She has been maintained and extensively upgraded and made stronger than factory in many areas. Sistering in 8 additional keel bolts among other things, has given the current owner much peace of mind for ocean passages.

The Medical/Military grade stand alone refridgerator is a serious asset.
https://www. Fridgefreeze. Com. The nightly amp hour amp hour draw of 12 is very easiy replaced on sunny days. Cruising boaters, sailors or powerboaters, make their own power, then conserve it as much as possible. Refridgeration is usually the one biggest consumer. After years of battling to keep up in the game, installing this high quality stand alone chest type refridgerator, it the one biggest game changer I could have done.

In 2022, the upgrage to lithium batteries and the DC/DC charger, dialed in my electrical power generation and storage system.

During 24 years of ownership, she has been restored and refitted (and refitted again), beefed up for ocean passages, and simply maintined to keep her something to be proud of.

She is currently in the cruising destination of Fiji, with an asking price of $56,000 (price drop, now $45,000).

This is a big deal, in that refridgeration on cruising boats is the one big consumer of power. Cruising boats make our own power (solar & engine alternator), then try to conserve it. The electrical system on this boat is dialed in, with low demand, excess of power generation capacity, and lithium batteries to store it. It has taken years of learning curve to get to this point. The new owner will likely have no idea that they have been spoiled by a worry free system.
