Brokers Walkthrough

Very rare customized Center Cockpit set up for Comfort and Cruising! Current Owner has owned her for 10 years and kept up with routine maintenance. Boat survived Hurricane Ian, Helene and Milton all within the last 3 years, as a result all new electronics replaced and all electrical items gone through with over 75K in repairs and replacements. New wiring to mast head, all standing rigging inspected and retuned. This vessel has undergone extensive in and out of water Insurance inspections with everything repaired or replaced! Boat does need some cosmetic TLC but no heavy lifting!

Introduction

This Nelson Marek designed center cockpit cruiser is a tough, go-anywhere boat with comfortable accommodations for five. She was modified by an engineer/cabinet maker who re-designed much of the boat to accommodate easy and comfortable passage. The transom has been tastefully and cleverly redesigned with a sugar scoop transom that adds 1.5 feet to the overall length of the boat. This design, in addition to making the boat slightly faster, is an excellent swim and dinghy platform. Another MAJOR change in this boat is the Master Stateroom. Originally a side-to berth, this stateroom now has a Full Island Berth similar to the Morgan 44, with additional cabinetry, a built-in sit down area to port, and lots of storage. The aft aluminum dinghy arch and the cockpit hard top finish off this boat as truly custom and very functional.
