SEQUEL is a wonderful example of the Abaco 40 series built by Bruckmann Yachts. Launched in 2014, she has been cared for and upgraded by some of New England's best boatyards and has spent every winter in heated indoor storage. She has a handsome Downeast design, with a single engine and running gear protected by a keel.

Abaco 40s are known for their elegant finish and solid construction. Designed to be handled by one, SEQUEL is seakindly and maneuvers easily in tight spaces with bow and stern thrusters. She has a Mark Ellis easy planing hull which rides comfortably at any speed.

SEQUEL comfortably accommodates two in the forward cabin, plus an additional two overnight guests on the pilothouse dinette that can convert to a queen-sized berth. A large head with separate shower stall and generous galley round out the interior.

Engine access is second-to-none in her size range, via hatches in the bridge deck. Powered with a 670 hp Cummins diesel, the Abaco planes at 10-12 knots and cruises comfortably at 22 knots, with a top speed of 25.
