42' Kadey Krogen 42 '88 "PCH"
PCH presents herself as a significant design by James Krogen and built in the world famous Chien Hwa yard with design features not found in today's marketplace. The sun deck is certainly something that separates her from the crowd. One of the unique features of this layout is the ability to step out of the master stateroom into the cockpit, take two steps and dive into the water without climbing over any railings.
Great layout and a design to satisfy almost any lifestyle make her a must see for this size motor yacht in this price range.
