Other C&C boats for sale in New York, United States
Brokerââ¬â¢s comments: "Nereus" is a second generation of the C&C 33. The rare keel-centerboard version is great for those hard to get into marinas with shallow dockage. With a racing pedigree, it is also a nice family cruiser. The traveler has been moved to the coachroof so thereââ¬â¢s more room in the cockpit. Large self-tailing winches are easily located port and starboard of the helm where thereââ¬â¢s a compass on the binnacle and the engine controls for the diesel are well within easy reach. There are 3 deck hatches for better ventilation, and anchor locker, double lifelines with gates port & starboard. Stainless Steel bow and stern pulpits and solid toe rail mounted stanchions surround the deck for added safety. Below decks youââ¬â¢ll find a generous V berth forward with ample storage and hanging locker. Following is a large marine head with pressure hot & cold water for a shower before going to the club. A marine toilet, mirrors, and cubbies for storage finish out the head area. The main salon offers seating both port and starboard with a centerline teak table with 2 fold out leaves which seat 4 comfortably. The port seat folds out to form a double berth. There is more storage on shelves outboard and under the starboard seating. To starboard at the base of the companionway step is a good sized galley containing a propane stove/oven, ice box and plenty of storage spaces for weekend getaways. Opposite to starboard is a nav station with the 110v & 12v panels, chart table and drawers for added storage. Directly behind is a very ample Quarterberth with storage underneath. Access to the engine is simple by lifting off the companionway steps where most of the engine is easily accessible. The owner has limited time to use the boat which prompts this sale. Always fresh water use, never seen salt!
Added highlights of this boat are 2016 new Teak and Holly flooring and brand new, never in the boat, custom cushions/foam. Deck hardware re-bedded as well as side windows.
