Classic Lobster Cruiser

Designed by Albert Condon and built here in Maine in 1929, ANNA MARY is an embodiment of the idea of “a classic of a bygone era”.  She was built for cruising the coast of Maine, which she has successfully done for nearly 100 years.  Her mere existence at this stage is testimony to her time-tested quality of construction, and wholesome design that has inspired past owners to restore her and maintain her as opposed to “upgrading” to a more modern boat.

In 2012 ANNA MARY (Previously named TOLLIE) underwent a major structural restoration whereby many of the frames were sistered with new fastenings, the entire transom was replaced, the stem repaired, the ceiling in the fore peak completely replaced.

ANNA MARY's interior has been completely replaced by a professional yard to a high yacht standard, with varnished interior trim with fiddles, all new furniture on both sides, doors, drawers and lockers, installation of an ABYC compliant holding tank system, head compartment, sink, head compartment door, icebox, butcher block counter tops, stove and galley lockers.  The custom cabinetry extends to the pilot house, with several large storage drawers under the long bench seats.  

The boat has excellent ventilation and lighting.  The original bronze hatches all have screens, and the entire house can be enclosed with canvas which affords both privacy and ventilation.  Deck prisms in the cabin provide extensive natural light down below.

Between the V-berth and the two long benches in the house ANNA MARY can sleep 3-4 people.  The bench seats have a system of framed slats which are hidden under the seat cushions during normal cruising.  The slats can then be extended to make the bench into a wide berth, for a more comfortable sleeping area.  The cockpit and house together have seating for 7-8 people with additional seating in the cabin below.  

For electronics ANNA MARY sports a Garmin 740S touchscreen chartplotter, Standard Horizon VHF radio with AIS, and depth sounder – all new in 2019. 

ANNA MARY remains in excellent condition and is currently located in Bristol, RI.  Please reach out for a copy of a recent survey or to schedule a visit to see the boat in person.
