“R/V Challenger”
1990 Ferry Steiner Passenger
Specifications
Description
Major Price Reduction! Very rare to have a passenger ship with a current coast guard certificate of inspection for 149 passengers, 1-captain, and 2- deckhands here on the west coast. This could be a fantastic business opportunity, or a great yacht conversion. In 2014 she had a major engine room refit, which included 3-new caterpillar C-18 diesel engines (685 h.p. each), 3-new ZF 360 transmissions, 2-new Mitsubishi S4SD 40 Kw. generators. This refit cost over 900K! Plus, she has a bow thruster, and stabilizers! So when I mentioned this could be a great opportunity for someone, I wasn't kidding. Built to last by Steiner ship builders. Steiner shipyard is a small family-owned and operated shipyard with many of the same capabilities as that of larger shipyards. Located in Bayou La Batra, Alabama, Steiner builds all types of new construction steel, and aluminum vessels - from passenger/cargo ferries, ocean-going push boats and offshore supply vessels, to commercial fishing trawlers - delivered all over the world. Most people recognize Steiner shipyard's name because they built the Black Pearl - the pirate ship for Disney's pirates of the Caribbean movies.
