Broker's Comments
A well-dressed two-engine trawler that's great for coastal cruising and the Great Loop. The mast is easily lowered with two people and minimal force due to the block and tackle system. With experience I would venture to say could be done by a single person. Engine room feels spacious for a twin screw, with newer generator and fuel polishing system pushed aft in the layout. Exterior brightwork is in great condition. The entire vessel shows beautifully. A must see for any potential trawler owner.
