Description

The "Dorothy B" is by far one of the nicest vessel out in the market today. This Californian 48 Convertible was the largest flybridge model the company ever built. She rides on a solid fiberglass hull with a well flared bow and a shallow keel. Her contemporary styling and upscale interior is visually impressive and finished throughout with well-crafted teak paneling. Some of her notable features include wide side decks, two staterooms, separate stall showers in both heads, walk through transom door and tackle center in the cockpit. She is a true head turner, that you must see! She will not last long in today's market.
