Here's a cruiser to be proud of. "Kanaloa" was the featured vessel in Bob Bitchin's new Cruising Outpost Magazine and small wonder. She's fully equipped to carry her owner to the far horizons, whether that be across broad oceans or simply Tampa Bay. Electric winches, SSB radio, roller furling sails, shoal draft and a host of cruising amenities, including air conditioning, make this a must see boat. Located on the new brokerage deck of Massey Yacht Sales in the Salt Creek Marina District of St Pete.
One of Beneteauââ¬â¢s most successful designs, this 473 is an ownerââ¬â¢s version that has never been in charter. She has been lovingly maintained by a professional boat captain and airline pilot with more than 40 years experience on the water.
She is shoal draft, has two staterooms, two heads with showers, a salon table that converts to a double berth, and a huge ââ¬Ågarageââ¬ï¿½ area. ââ¬ÅKanaloaââ¬ï¿½ is mostly stock, and in excellent condition for continued cruising.
