Combine the beauty of the trawler style profile of the Californian Motor Yacht and add a 5 ft Cockpit Extension and you end up with the perfect blend of comfort and spaciousness coupled with a cockpit roomy enough for a couple of anglers.The current owners have modified the layout somewhat to accommodate everything they want for living aboard. They prefer dining on the  enclosed aft deck sporting New Furniture for Dining and Entertaining. So, without a dedicated dining area in the main salon,  it’s much more spacious with just two New Occasional chairs  and a small fold away table, plus the galley is down making it even more roomy and inviting.

Three areas perfect for entertaining include the Flybridge, Enclosed aft deck and Spacious Salon. Plentiful Creature Comforts amid a lovely Rich Walnut interior offer a warm ambiance throughout the two Stateroom, Two head layout, plus an abundance of Storage areas.  A Washer/Dryer was fitted into the Forward Cabin, easily done with still plenty of room for a 3/4 berth with storage underneath. The Master Stateroom is a Full Beam Cabin with a Queen Island Berth and storage in several Glossy Walnut Hanging Lockers and cabinetry, along with an Ensuite Head. “Copia” is powered by Twin Caterpillar 3208’s, she has Three AC units, Dinghy with Hoist, Double Wing Doors for Dockside Access, Transom Fish Door, Panoramic Windows for plenty of light, New Salon and Aft Deck Furniture and Carpet, New Full Size Refrigerator with Freezer, Generator, Electric Windlass, plus Radar and Depth Finder.  OF SPECIAL NOTE:  Upon purchase of the boat, the current owner will have a New Bimini made with the new Owners Choice of Color.  Californian’s are American made and superior in construction, built strong to last and enjoy.  This one has been lovingly cared for and updated, and ready for a proud new owner.
