Hi,
Wish I'd been close to the computer and responded faster on your question.
Let's see. She's a Ted Brewer designed Pan Oceanic 46, Repowered in 07 with a
Westerbeke, and everything else from
fuel tanks through the prop.
Ted did the original Oceanic design for Reese Palley and his wife as a one off for their circumnavication They wrote a book about it. This one came from the factory in
Taiwan on its own bottom and I bought it from a guy who was crew on her original
delivery. She's been all over the place and I've had her out in really bad
weather and never been scared. She's way more sea worthy than I am.
Which brings me to my reason for having her on the market. I'm a
power boater at heart. A
fishing fanatic actually. Anyway, I can't afford to keep a big sport
fisher and a big sailboat, so I kind of turned to the dark side. :-) Watching
fuel prices these days, I'm sure I'm gonna regret it. :-(
The listing is here.

I can answer any specific questions as well.
