Submit your offer today!*** MOTIVATED SELLER ** SPACIOUS LAYOUT ** TWIN CAT 3208TA DIESELS**Located on Cape Cod in MA, there is seating for 6 to 8 on the flybridge forward of the helm along with a wet bar. Access the boat from the large swim platform through the gated transom onto a large cockpit. Six stairs to both port and starboard bring you up to the flybridge with commanding views and a helm with a great line of sight. Bring the whole gang up with you.The seating both behind, to starboard and forward of the helm is upholstered without any UV damage or split seams, clearly not original. The helm area is shaded by the Sunbrella bimini in good condition.The isinglass was not on the boat and is in need of repair or replacement, but the seller has the old ones to be used for a template if desired.The helm has a full array of electronics including redundant GPS using Garmin GPSmap 541S and a newer Simrad screen with radar.The twin Cat diesels have an oil change system making that job a breeze.The large bow deck has two Bowmar hatches and a small bow spirt with two anchors, a windlass and help controlled spotlight.Two steps down through the companionway from the cockpit brings you to a spacious stateroom with L-shaped seating to starboard with the dinette table.The galley is to port along with a standup bar separating it from the stateroom. It has a 2-bay stainless steel sink with hot / cold pressurized water. There are numerous drawers and cabinets above and below the U-shaped galley that will keep the gourmets' pots, pans and utensils organized.There is a 2-burner stovetop and the toaster oven on the counter is included. The microwave is above. The backsplash is tile.Best part of the galley is the 2 refrigerator / freezer units, stacked one above the other, on the starboard side.The forward double berth features an island bed, not a V-berth. The overhead hatch and numerous ports provide abundant natural light and ventilation when not needing the heat or A/C.The forward berth also has plenty of storage with drawers under the bed and a hanging locker. There is also a separate direct door to the head.To port aft of the galley is a double berth.The head has a separate shower compartment from the toilet and porcelain sink with hot / cold pressurized water.

Owner's Comment
This spacious flybridge is in good condition with no splits seams, stains or tears in any of the upholstery.It has been used each year since purchase in 2001 but little used in recent years, only cruising the local bay and near Coastal waterways.3 known issues:1 - the port fuel tank has a very small pin hole leak in it, he has pads setup to absorb anything fuel that may drip out from time to time, but it is very minimal. They are not planning to repair it, no cost estimate at this time. Seller did mention the back deck is removeable for access to the tanks, so you don't need to cut into the fiberglass if someone wanted to look into a repair.2 - the skylight in the main cabin has a small leak as well.3 - the canvas and isinglass is old, it may be somewhat serviceable but will likely need to be replaced in the near future
