DESCRIPTION:

I bought her during COVID to overhaul and keep for life. Then, Ian wrecked my house and my priorities changed...and my canal became shallower. One could easily bum-around the Caribbean on this boat, forever. It's so easy to pilot, easy to maintain and comfortable to stay aboard.

Just finished having the topside painted and it looks SO nice. She has a new bottom job as well.

I'm not going to list all the things done, it would write a book. The boat has been gone through from bow to stern. New props, dripless shaft logs, cutlass bearings, trim tabs, master a/c, windlass motor, battery charger, steering box, all pumps, etc, etc. Every system has had attention and it ALL works. I even restored the big fighting chair at great expense. The Evo3 Simrad system has every option and a new chip for S FL.
The big outriggers need resetting because I never use them. There are only a few to-do items left on my original list of over 90. I have all the original docs, from blueprints to work done decades ago.

The 20kw genny is old but runs well. It got a lot of use after Ian when I lived on her for a couple weeks.
The 8v92s are glorious. They're cost effective, lifetime engines. The boat runs perfectly. It planes easily and the engines are just loafing at 1,775 for a nice 20mph.

Inspections welcome. Don't ask for a listing.
