Beautiful Cherokee 50 Express Cruiser built by Profil Marine shipyard in Origgio, Italy. Designed by Alberto Mercati Superyacht designer. This yacht was custom ordered with a larger salon at a cost over $1,000,000 in 1987.This Profil Marine Cherokee 50 is ready for the lake or Ocean. Prior owner was taking it from Fall River, Massachusetts to Nantucket, Marthas Vineyard and surrounding areas. Charts are on board. Dont let the low price scare you. This is the real deal on the Ocean or Lake. 5 blade 20 props, thick deep v hull. This can be used as a fast port to port grand touring boat. It will get out out of bad weather and to port when you need it, even on the Great Lakes. The Jeneens used it mainly on lake Ontario, the Lake Erie charts are on board as well.Equipped with Simrad Auto Pilot system that is connected to the Raymarine C80 Radar and Seatalk system connecting to Raymarine Bidata for depth and speed. There is also a Garmin fishfinder. The latest 800 Airmar triducer connected to C80 feeds data across the systems.The 2 stroke Detroit Diesel 8V92TA twin turbo engines have 125 hours since major rebuild. There is only 1250 hours since new on Yacht. Prior owner was a CEO and spent $200,000 on Engines, interior and custom top. The canvas top Isenglass is really nice and color is good on inside. The outside red has faded. I am considering having it redone for summer. I just spent $20,000 and replaced the Air Conditioners, replaced Ice Maker, all 4 8D batteries & 12V Generator Battery, new bottom paint, total engine service, new fresh water strainer sight glasses, Racor fuel separator filters, Racor CCV filters and service, Oil Changed with new impellers in Reverso automatic oil fill pumps, all new rubber hoses including the Exhaust, complete cooling system/heat exchangers professionally cleaned, new NMEA 2000 Backbone communications with Airmar 800 DST Transducer, 6 new bilge pumps, Engines run smooth and cool. You cannot appreciate the magnitude of the twin Detroit engines until you see them in person. These are the biggest power plants on Lake Ray Hubbard, yet still a luxurious and refined sport cruiser! Engines fire up immediately with push button.

The other is the Cherokee 45 in Conn. for $199,000. It had a nice refit, but my boat has a bigger salon and better amenities. The foreign comps for the Cherokee 50 are mostly older with the Cat 903 engines and are in the Mediterranean.Most of those were used as tour boats from ports in the Mediterranean and have high hours and are in need major refits.

Questions
Love the write up. I'm looking for something my wife and I can live on for an extended periods as we sail around SE Asia. Don't plan or want to go on major ocean voyages, just island hopping. From what you've said it sounds perfectly capable. It's docked on lake Ray Hubbard now? Do you have any idea what it would cost to tow down to say Beaumont I guess would be the nearest ocean portage and then sail it to Vietnam? I know it's a ridiculous question, better to find a boat in the SE Asia. I'm comfortable dealing with folks here in the US. Not so much in SE Asia. So while I believe intuitively that it's impractical and adds significant expense and a massive amount of effort just to get the boat to my home port in Vietnam, I don't have any empirical data to support it what my gut is telling me. One way to get that data is to figure it out, leg by leg of it's journey. What does it cost to fill the fuel tanks and how far can I conservatively expect to travel? Assuming it's even possible to plot a course across the pacific that doesn't require to exceed the boats cruising distance etc... Once I finally arrive at my home port, what maintenance would likely be needed to ready the boat for it's next journey with my wife aboard? Same question, but from a different perspective, what in your experience are the primary maintenance issues on a monthly/quarterly/yearly basis. Further, if I'm not asking the right questions, what are the right questions.
I've requested an excessive amount of your time just to read this assuming you're still with me. I have a deep respect for peoples time. Yes, what I'm talking about is completely foreign to me. I was in the US Nave over 35 years ago, so I know enough to know what I don't know. Maybe you can just point me to a good source of information?
Thank you in advance.
