As George says, it is a magnificent yacht for the
money. It was too much for us right now though.
Three couples could two-step around the
salon and a few more out in the
cockpit. The side decks, foredeck, and coach roof are clear and expansive. The tramps would accommodate a half-dozen, or so, sprawling teenagers. In its
current state, I would describe the
interior as a blank
canvas. There is nothing fancy going on in there. It has been recently white-washed. However, the
storage capability was incredible. Every nook and cranny had useful, compartmentalized,
storage. The true queen forward berths are surrounded fore and toward center with large
deck storage. There are
ports that open into those storage areas which would support increased ventilation, both for the berths and the
deck storage. That seemed like a good thing to me. Plus, you could hide all your servants in there in case of boarding by the coasties. Under the mattresses was about a three inch space where you could hide your stacks of cash. The entire bed! Stacks and stacks of cash. It boggles the mind. There is a
head in the master and the port aft
engine compartment also sports a
head. Some people would call it a head. But, as a gearhead, I was smitten with this
engine berth. The engine sits on its mount in such a way as to allow just wonderful access all around. It could only be more accessible if it was on a turntable. (A 360 degree rotating saildrive!! You heard it hear first folks!!) The starboard
hull currently is just a big empty spot with a ginormous hole in the bottom. I was getting all misty eyed imagining a glistening new
Yanmar perched in there though.
It seemed like a very solid craft. The
hull repair looked very good and is not painted. There is one spot of bare
wood under the deck about two inches long and a half inch wide that should be sealed in. That's all I found. The swim platform looked sturdy. The owner has everything that came out of the
boat in a storage
trailer nearby.
