"Big Chief" is a serious bluewater pilot-house ketch. This vessel presents in very good condition and is ready to cruise. She is set up to be safely and comfortably managed shorthanded. The pilot-house is well appointed and offers good visibility and shelter. The decks are wide and uncluttered and the high solid sea-safety rails (with midship gates) provide safety at sea. Below the deck, it is all about crew comfort. The saloon is spacious, the galley is a cook's delight, and the private sleeping cabins are cosy. The nav station is strategically located for easy communication with the helm. The 75-hp Volvo Penta has what it takes to power the big vessel at a cruising speed of 6.5 knots and punch the chop with ease. The cruising range under motor is in excess of 1500 nm. Whether cruising the coast or crossing oceans, "Big Chief" has got you covered.
Australian Registered Vessel (AMSA) no. 851207.
CALL PAUL to arrange an INSPECTION. At this price, the Vessel represents OUTSTANDING VALUE.
