What a great layout. This lady has a Island Berth aft and Full Berth forward and both heads have stall showers. She has gone through a refit to include new Caterpillar 3208's and Transmissions (2011 with less than 300 hours) Headliner (2025), Carpet (2025) and the cleanest engine room you will find. With all her updates this is going to be the greatest boat on the market for a future Looper or Bahamas Cruiser. This Californian was built by Wellcraft and a very well made boat.
Her currant owner bought her in March of 2024 and this is one of several boats he has redone. The previous owner owned her since 2003 and was an Engineer. There are log books going back till then and receipts from Gregory Poole for the Engine Long Blocks
There is a current survey done for insurance available.
