This hull and frames are in very good shape however the 692engins run great but are in need of up grades. Vessel would make a very good pilot boat or rough weather launch. This vessel handles perfect, we have videos of this vessel boading ships in challenging weather on youtube. Look up " 10 9 13 Northeaster Boarding " on youtube and "10 9 13 Northeaster Boarding part 2 " You will see how graceful this vessel handles in rough weather.Vessel will be offhire and available for final sale at the end of September. We are at a port city and could assist in a overseas delivery.You can contact Gary at phone or email email for more information.
