There are walkaround decks that provide convenience and safety to the crew and guests, and the large open area at the bow and topside provides a built-in bench and cushions that make this a favorite spot for the guests on a day at the lake.
The spacious engine room features twin Crusader 454 engines - closed cooling, that delivers a combined 700 HP and an Onan 6.5kW Genset that runs everything on board.
She is outfitted with a Bimini top and Isinglass enclosure that is in good condition. The electric Windlass makes dropping and pulling up the anchor quick and easy.
