"Blue Chip" is a pleasure to show. Basically there is no space onboard that I wasn't afraid to take a picture of. Every single space is Clean, Dry, Well Organized, Smells good, etc.
With her repainted exterior, she shines like a much newer boat. Pride of Ownership is very evident. In fact, the current owner, has owned this vessel twice, for a total of about 15 years.
