Remarks

This popular cruiser has seen lots of use having completed the "Great Loop" and then time cruising in the Bahamas. Current owner has put 1100 hours on this boat in the last 5 years. She has decent equipment and has some nice upgrades. The Captain who delivered her to Fort Lauderdale from the Berry Islands, Bahamas in January 2011, reports that her 3208 Cats run good. Engines have 2300 hours on the meters, start easily and don't smoke. We have run her systems and equipment, most are functional except as noted. Owner reports WEST System bottom barrier coat in 2009. Cosmetics are marginal at best.

** SHE IS A PROJECT ** and is ready for re-fit.  Look carefully at all 94 photos, then come take a look.

Initial photos were shot on Feb. 2, 2011. Additional added detail photos shot Feb 21, 2011.
