Short History

Current owners purchased this vessel in Chesapeake Bay in late 2017 and began using it in the 2018 season out of the Mystic CT area. It is believed there were two owners prior, so believed to be a three-owner boat. Their use has been limited to the typical New England boating season with about 6 months in the water followed by about 6 months on the hard, covered with routine annual service including oil/filter changes for engines & generator, winterizing of all systems, fresh coats of bottom paint & zincs all performed by one of the better marinas in the area. It is this limited use and annual maintenance that favors New England boats to buyers. The owners are selling to downsize their boating plans, though are are not interested in any trades.   

Exclusions

With a smaller boat likely in their future, much of the seller's personal gear will not convey with the vessel including:

Plates, glasses, flatwear, cookwear and other loose galley equipment 

Yeti cooler in the aft cockpit

Teak deck furniture 

Tools

Personal clothing & gear located in lockers throughout
