This Cruisers Yacht is a great boat that's been very well maintained. It has a great cockpit layout and large, roomy cabin floor plan that sleeps 6. While a relatively large boat, the twin Bravo III drives make for a very responsive ride. It maneuvers well, jumps right up on plane, and can reach 40 knots.
There are approximately 325 hours on the twin Mercruiser 5.7L Thunderbolt 5 enginesmatched to BravoIII outdrives. Both the engines and drives are in great condition. There are two bilge pumps, one aft in the engine compartment and one under the cabin floor. An automatic halon extinguisher system and two 75 gallon aluminum fuel tanks (one port, one starboard) are located in the engine compartment which is easy to access from a large deck hatch and spacious enough to easily perform maintenance. A new 20A battery charger/maintainer and hot water heater are also located within the engine compartment. The hot water heater is newer (2006) and provides a generous hot water supply- we rarely have issues running out of hot water even for showers.
In the cabin you'll find a forward berth, a settee that converts to a bed, and a mid-berth couch that converts to a third sleeping space. There is ample headroom and even tall people (I'm 6'1") can standcomfortably. The galleyarea has plenty of cabinet space, a single burnerprincess stove, microwave, and AC/DC fridge. The cabin is climate controlled with reverse cycle AC/heat that works great. The head contains a pump flush toilet as well as a sink and stand-up shower. The waste line from the toilet to the waste tank was just replaced. The boat has a macerator, however we never pump waste overboard so it was disconnected from the waste circuit.The cabin is clean and in like new condition.
On deck you'll find a roomy cockpit with a two-person bench seat at the helm and seating for 6 with removable tables behind that. The seating is also easily removed to open up more deck space. A deck sink is positioned above cabinets on the port side. There are 4 storage cabinets on deck which provide ample space for all equipment. Electronics include aRaymarine RL70 radar/GPS, Uniden VHF radio, Clarion radio w/ remote at helm and two new JBL speakers on deck. Mounted on the radar arch is a closed dome radar array, a GPS antenna, and a television antenna. An automatic windlass with both bow and cockpit controls makes anchoring up easy. The remote controlled spotlight is an asset for night navigation. A full cockpit enclosure and cockpit cover are both included. The canvas on the cockpit enclosure is in good condition (one zipper needs to be re-sown) and the majority of the eisenglass is in great condition. The eisenglass above the windshield is a bit cloudy but servicable. A shore power cable/splitter, marine cable TV wiring, and water supply hose are housed in an aft compartment on the stern above the large swim platform. There is full snap-in carpeting for the cockpit but we've never used it.
The hull and topsides are boat in great condition. There are a few small surface cracks in the gelcoat on the port edge of the swim platform, the aft aspect of the radar arch where it attaches to the deck, and on the top of the radar arch. All are cosmetic and not structural issues. The hour meter and tachometer for the port engine are not working properly, and the speedometer recently stopped working. They don't affect the operation of the boat so we haven't had them addressed yet. There are no other known issues with the boat. It starts on the first turn of the key and runs great. It's in ready to go condition and we're still using it on weekend trips from all around from AC to Barnegat Light.

The boat is currently in the water on Long Beach Island, NJ. The slip is paid for through mid-October and will be transferredto the buyer for use for the remainder of the season.
This boat was NOT affected by Hurricane Sandy. It was high and dry in storage far inland at the time of the storm.
We love this boat but are planning to purchase a home on the water and thus don't need such a large boat. Please let me know if you have any further questions and I'd be happy to answer them.
