Description:

Full keeled, heavy displacement fiberglass cruising boat. Makes a perfect liveaboard for a couple or single hander, with almost all lines lead aft to the cockpit and a wheel pilot installed (WheelPilot 5000). Spacious cockpit, wheel pedestal steering, clear view of instruments and sails from cockpit. Underneath the cockpit is a Nanni Diesel (new in 2002) with low hours and excellent maintenance logs. Galley is below to port with three burner Tasco propane stove & oven, hot and cold pressure water with a spray nozzle, a deep stainless sink, and two very large ice boxes. Lots of galley storage, including spice rack. Chart table and nav station is to starboard, with quarter berth (no cushion, used as storage space) and more stowage behind. Stepping down into the Saloon there is a pull-out double berth to port, pull-out single berth to starboard, fold down dining table forward with storage shelf behind it, and outboard storage behind both settees. Also storage access cut into the under-settee area so you do not have to lift the cushions every time to access it. Big overhead hatch in the middle of salon. Moving forward is a full clothing locker to starboard with shelves newly installed, head to port with hot/cold water shower and sink, and composting head. Very comfortable V-berth is forward of the head, with its own door into head as well, and a 2nd full size clothing locker with fiddled shelf above. Big hatch overhead, very airy and comfortable v-berth. Forward of the V-berth is anchor chain locker and underneath the berth is even more (extensive!) storage space.
