Very rare customized Center Cockpit set up for Comfort and Cruising!
Current Owner has owned her for 10 years and kept up with routine
maintenance. Boat took a Nearby lightning strike and survived Hurricane
Ian all within a few months, as a result all new electronics replaced
and all electrical items gone through with close to 75K in repairs and
replacements. New wiring to mast head, all standing rigging inspected
and retuned. This vessel has undergone extensive in and out of water
Insurance inspections with everything repaired or replaced! Boat does
need some cosmetic TLC but no heavy lifting!
Introduction
This Nelson Marek designed center cockpit cruiser is a tough,
go-anywhere boat with comfortable accommodations for five. She was
modified by an engineer/cabinet maker who re-designed much of the boat
to accommodate easy and comfortable passage. The transom has been
tastefully and cleverly redesigned with a sugar scoop transom that adds
1.5 feet to the overall length of the boat. This design, in addition to
making the boat slightly faster, is an excellent swim and dinghy
platform. Another MAJOR change in this boat is the Master Stateroom.
Originally a side-to berth, this stateroom now has a Full Island Berth
similar to the Morgan 44, with additional cabinetry, a built-in sit down
area to port, and lots of storage. The aft aluminum dinghy arch and
the cockpit hard top finish off this boat as truly custom and very
functional.
