1 month ago this was a beautifully restored sportfishing yacht. She was basically a frame off restoration. Two new rebuilt Detroit 6-71 TIs with new long blocks purchased from Detroit Diesel. The rebuilds have less than 100 hours on them. Every electrical wire, terminal, grounding post, gauge, a/c & d/c panel was ripped out and replaced with new. A new 8 kw Norpro Gen. A complete Garmin 5000 series electronics package. Home theater sound system with 3 TVs with plenty of speakers up top for the "out side party". Exterior was painted with DuPont Imron. The exterior and interior was reupholstered and and the interior completely refurbed with real cherry wood walls, cabinets and doors. The reason I mention all of this is to emphasis that we did not restore this boat to flip it for resale. We spared no expense. When something needed to be replaced, we replaced it with the best. We upgraded everything with the idea of keeping her long term. It was a joint venture between two families with a lot of kids.... thus the name "Family Affair".
Sadly, a port shaft packing put her on the soft sand bottom at the dock. Both engines, all salon level upholstery, cherry wood, and lower level electrical components were submerged. Both engines, turbos, and transmissions were properly pickled and saved by Palm Beach Yacht Center. The marina has run both drive systems for at least one hour every other day and changed all fluids 3 times. Palm Beach Yacht Center will certify that both port and starboard drive systems, including transmissions, are running perfectly. Shafts, rudders, props, and all running gear are in perfect condition due to the soft sand bottom she rested on when she went down. Everything on the flybridge level never went under and is still in perfect operational condition. We do not have the time or energy to restore her again. But, we hope we can hand her off to to someone who has the desire and vision to do so.
The main listing pic, and pics 17 - 23 are of her in her glory. I included them to help you envision what this yacht's potential is fully restored. The remainder of the pics are "post-wet". Amazingly, the cherry interior survived much better than we expected. You can see that clearly from the pics. Most all cabinets, walls, and moldings appear fine. I think with some smart refinishing and a replacement of all doors and drawer fronts, the cherry interior is salvageable. Obviously, all lower lever electrical wiring and components need to be replaced (with the exception of starters which are new and were necessary to save the engines).
Exterior teak is still in great condition and we have full custom canvas covers for the flybridge, cockpit, windshields, hatches, and windlass/remote spot/teak pulpit. The custom built aluminum top cost $10k and was worth every penny when you look at the pics.
The hull is undamaged and in pristine condition. Yes, that means you will not find a blister on the bottom of this one (which is a common problem on some Trojan hulls). Our hope is to find a project boat buyer with a little vision who wants to buy her as a package. If we don't find such a buyer, we will consider selling the engines and trannies separate from the hull.
There is a 2 kw high speed Garmin transducer with fairing block (cost $2,000) that is glassed into the hull. With the exception of that, the electronics package that stayed dry up in the flybridge is NOT included in the sale of the boat. However, if it is desired, it can be purchased separately.
Pre-inspection can be arranged. Contact me for more information, specifications, or additional photos.
This
sale is for a vessel in AS-IS condition and the sale is final.
Transportation costs is the buyer's responsibility.
