This very simple but very well constructed vessel was finished by the quality Maine craftsmen at Farrins boat shop in 1984. (http://www.farrinsboatshop.com/) This should speak volumes for the type of quality and pride this boat was built with. The custom finish shops in Maine are not the same and Farrins is one of the best and held in high regard.The vessel was originally built for a a navy officer who, after leaving the US Navy,attended Harvardand became a prominent patent lawyer.Thiswas his baby for most of its life until his passing. The original BMW diesel engine was proven unreliable and was subsequently removed and replaced around 2004 in favor of the ultra reliable and fuel sipping Westerbeke 82B. This engine now has about 315 original hours since being installed and is in excellent condition. This will move this boat at about 12 knots ( reported by previous Owner). With its full bow, full keel and high freeboard this vessel will take you just about anywhere and get you home safely and efficiently. This boat is a large 25' and pics are deceptive as to its true size. The hull is in excellent original condition and it is very clear this boat was very well taken care of throughout its life. The boat is ROCK SOLID EVERYWHERE! No soft spots, no rot. The boat was built RIGHT to last, and was very well cared for.
The boat had a head ( marine toilet) installed all the way forward (pictured) , however this area is meant primarily for storage. This was not original to boat and I cannot understand why it was installed by previous Owner so it was removed last week in favor of gaining more storage area. . Please keep in mind that from deck to the overhead in the forward storage compartment is approximately 4' so this is not an area where you ( most people) could stand up.This is a beautiful example of a stout and seaworthy downeast boat; its classic, timeless lines will never be out of style. Vessel particulars:- Heavily built hand laid solid fiberglass hull ( look at picture of under gunwhale and you will see how thick hull is !)- Westerbeke 82B 4 cylinder diesel engine with Hurth reverse gear.- 1.25" stainless shaft-fiberglass rudder.-approximately 50 gallon fiberglass fuel tank installed aft under gunwhale. Translucent vertical strip in tank easily references fuel tank level.- bronze hawse ports and deck drains

I can assist in arranging for professional transport if needed.This vessel will turn heads in any harbor and would be over $100K to replace today. Call Farrins boat shop, or ANY reputable downeast boatbuilder and find out for yourself!The vessels bottom was stripped of nearly all old bottom paint in preparation to apply new bottom paint.
