Move aboard ready! This Californian 52 is ready to go, perfect for island hopping Puget Sound
vacations, weekend cruising the San Juans, or as a liveaboard for those fortunate enough to do
so. With its double staterooms, double heads, and double salons layout there's room for everyone
to spread out and enjoy the best of cruising. Watch the action from the fully enclosed flybridge
then after dropping anchor relax on the huge sun deck with panoramic views. Refrigerators on
both keep your snacks and beverages of choice cool and handy. After sunset, enjoy dinner in the
semicircular dinette followed by some social or TV time in the spacious salon. Cap your day
with a great night's rest on the premium mattress in one of the two private staterooms, each with
its own bath.
The captain will appreciate the Garmin electronics and navigation equipment, the twin 3208
Caterpillat 425 HP diesel engines, the bow thruster for crisp docking, 2520 watts of solar power
with a backup 8.6 kw Kohler generator for rainy days, and easy engine access.
The first mate will appreciate the well appointed galley with refrigerator, freezer, microwave,
toaster oven, 4-burner stove, and oversize workstation sink. There's a compactor to minimize
trash, lots of drawers and storage, overhead spices and a setback shelf for dry goods. Of course
your galley comes equipped with dishes, silverware, glassware, utensils, pots, pans, and storage
containers.
The huge tool chest, large chest freezer for storing bait or freezing the day's catch, and built-in
rod holders make the cockpit a mini "man cave."
