Meet Huey - a strong and seasoned 40ft steel monohull with a history of adventure and loads of potential. Designed by John Pugh and weighing in at a sturdy 18 tonnes, Huey is built for offshore cruising. She last sailed from Darwin to Cairns in November 2023 and has since been on the hard at Cairns Boat Yard. While she needs some love to get sailing again, she has all the essentials for someone ready to bring her back to life.
Features:
o 40ft steel monohull - John Pugh design
o 18 tonnes - solid, safe and sea-kindly
o Solar setup installed
o Navigation equipment included
o Full sail wardrobe
o Well-stocked onboard tool shed
o Aft cabin fits queen sized double bed
o Lots of extras, such as safety gear and brand new upholstered saloon cushions
o Can liveaboard where stored
Engine: Original engine is not operational. Comes with a reconditioned Perkins 120 hp, same as existing, ready for installation
Huey was previously set up as a fully functional liveaboard, with plenty of space both above and below deck. She would make a great liveaboard again or a solid base for long-term cruising with a bit of finishing work.
We, the current owners, can no longer continue the project, but Huey has everything needed for someone to pick it up and get her back out on the water. She's perfect for a hands-on sailor looking for a rewarding refit.
Huey is offered as-is, where-is. Inspections are welcome by appointment.
