Description
A unique boat with a hard top and real windows which create a very sheltered and comfortable "pilothouse" around the helm and forward cockpit. This also allows for larger windows below, much larger than other express boats, so one can sit below and still see what is going on outside. It gives you the open feeling and visibility a sedan. The aft cockpit has a canvas and isinglass enclosure that can be opened to the sun. These features along with the two cabin layout, large 7.4 liter engine and the boat's excellent condition make this a great value.
Accommodations and Layout
This boat has a roomy two cabin layout with large windows providing exceptional visibility, a partially enclosed helm with hard top and more large windows, and a large cockpit. Headroom in the salon is about 6' 3". All upholstery and interior appointments are in excellent condition.
The interior has a large berth forward, a galley and a head with a hot and cold pressurized water shower to starboard, and a dinette to port. The dinette can be converted to a double berth and has two facing seats. Also, it raised so that when you are sitting at the table you have great visibililty through the large windows. You do not have the feeling of sitting inside a hole like you do on many express boats, you can still see the water, sky, sun and other boats around you.
Further aft under the cockpit is a mid-cabin with a double berth. The cabin has a real door, a large hanging locker and room to stand and change with the door closed.

Deck and Hull
The hardtop/pilothouse enclosure covers about two thirds of the cockpit, but there is still plenty of room in the aft part of the cockpit for sunning. There is also a full canvas and isinglass enclosure in good condition for the aft cockpit. The entire cockpit is spacious and uncluttered.
The foredeck has a stainless steel railing. Other features include a swimstep with boarding ladder, a bait tank, four rod holders, anchor, chain and rode, and safety equipment.
The bottom paint is reported to be in very good shape. (Five coats of bottom paint were appled in 2001.)
Engine and Mechanical
The boat has the larger 7.4 liter Mercruiser engine with less than 400 hours. The outdrive was inspected and serviced by Sea Mark in August of 2001. The engine is freshwater cooled and has a single lever throttle/shifter. Trim tabs and water heater.
