Description
1986 Chris-Craft Catalina 426 "CaribbeanSun" with twin diesel Caterpillar 3208's.
Fully serviced.Great cruising boat or live-aboard.I bought her to do the Great Loop from Florida to New York in 2014. Now she is waiting for someone to finish!!!
Purchased in Florida in 2014 and I put $60k of upgrades and refurbishments into her. Mine investment =your gain and peace of mind. Trust me you don't want to spend time in the boatyard. That is not boating--it is torture(water-lesswater-boarding).
Master QUEEN stateroom is aft ( rear) with its own bathroom and tub shower!! Real size!!
Queen forward stateroom also has its own bath and shower.
Spacious galley and dinette table. All appliances for easy living including new large microwave.
Salon ( living room) is spacious and clean and sofa turns into another bed!
New electronics (some) Auto pilot, GPS, VHF.
New reverse cycle Marine Air Conditioning throughout-I spent $5k on a new state of the art system.
Brand New dingy davit system (I spent $3k) so you can haul and stow and use your dinghywith ease.
Great yacht for the "Loop" or live aboard. Currently lying in Long Island at the Brewer Capri Marina, in Port Washington, on Manhasset Bay.
Some personal notes: Thisis a very easy and SAFE boat to use. TWIN engines plus a generator. Allhave been serviced and new hoses have been installed throughout!!! One or two people can easily handle this boat- I did and I was alone and not very experienced. She took me 1400 miles up the inter-coastal waterway! A delight. A home on the water and a comfortable one at that! She is a very sturdy and heavy boat and pushes the water away from her bow at 36,000 lbs! Her engines have approx 2800 hrs. Generatorapprox 3000 ( I need to confirm actual numbers).
DON'T PUT OFF THAT DREAM-AS ONE AUTHOR SAID:"GO SOONER, GO SMALLER, JUST GO!!!"
Boat is listed on YachtWorld so I reserve the rightto cancel the auction at any time
