Northeast Harbor, Maine

$489,000

Passionate yacht owner breathes new life into a Down east classic. This 1983/2023 classic down east cruiser underwent a 5-year refit (at Wilbur Yachts) and is now what many would consider to be better than new. Owning a classic yacht does not have to come with headaches; especially when all her systems are replaced with modern equipment. New wiring, new electronics, new 725 hp Volvo Penta Diesel engine, new Northern Lights Genset, new fuel tanks, new barrier coat on bottom, new paint on decks, house and throughout engine room space. New cabin-top teak Butterfly hatch and Dorade box/vents, re-bedded bronze port lights and on and on.... Launching in June and absolutely ready to cruise!
