Abby's Idea is an exquisitely maintained Jarvis Newman. Her Downeast style lines and fresh grey tops sides shine in any harbor. She is a rare offering in that she comes equipped with both port and starboard side pilothouse entry doors. She boasts a number of recent upgrades, including: large chart Garmin plotter and radar and new composting head system. Her previous owner had her main engine removed and re-built recently (2021) and all systems are in excellent condition.
As you proceed down her companionway steps, Abby's Idea opens up to a spacious and attractive layout: head compartment to starboard, sleeping accommodations forward and galley to port.
Her head compartment is comprised of a single stainless-steel sink, large medicine cabinet, overhead dome lighting, bronze operating port with screen and marine flush. Teak detailing is present throughout and underfoot is a solid wood floor with dedicated sump drain.
The L-shaped galley is directly to port. Starting at base of the companionway steps, there's a sizable, bulkhead mounted open cabinet, paper towel dispenser, CNG Stove/Oven with sniffer, additional storage locker with Sea Frost cooling plate, very deep stainless steel sink basin, sliding storage outboard, two overhead dome lights mounted in her headline, two bronze operating ports with screens, three-burner stove top with oven below and drawer and additional cabinet storage below the countertop.
Forward is a sizable V-berth with insert cushion. Two brass reading lights- one dedicated to either side of the V-berth. Outboard, to each side is an open shelf/ storage ledge. Overhead is an operating hatch with two dog levers for great natural light and natural ventilation. The tan soft goods show well and are in keeping with the classic neutral esthetic of this Jarvis Newman. Her forward hull sides at the V-berth are adorned with varnished wood strapping.
Turning back aft and to starboard, the Espar cabin heater control is mounted on the forward side of a substantial hanging locker. Above which is the head unit control for her Fusion sound system with Bluetooth with Bose speakers.
Abby's Idea is outfitted with many high-end components, including: six bronze operating ports with screens in her below deck living quarters, and a varnished teak and holly cabin sole.
Starting at her teak swim platform, Abby's Idea has a large, open aft deck with bench seating and teak pedestal table. She has a tan three-panel canvas drop-down curtain enclosure with isinglass windows at the aft end of her cabin top. Just inside the enclosure to starboard is a storage cabinet and to port is a flip-up table with two captains chairs.
At her helm deck, two, white, pilot seats are mounted to adjustable pedestal bases. To port is a large refrigerator compartment cooled by a Sea Frost plate. Her helm is to starboard with classic ships wheel, updated GARMIN chart plotter, and throttle controls. Centerline at her helm deck is her engine compartment hatch with a gas strut for ease of opening. The side panels, below each captain chair can also be removed for further access to her propulsion. The vessel's control panel and battery switched are mounted below the helm and inboard towards the companionway.
Access to her side-decks is unbeatable: there's a sliding door at each helm seat, affording her operator and co-pilot a simple step up to her side decks and solid and safe handholds within easy reach.
Her biscuit/ tan decks reduce glare while looking forward underway. The exterior non-skid is in incredible shape. A stainless steel handrail is mounted to her cabin-top and runs all the way up to her bow. Two substantial bronze cleats grace her bow. Bronze caulks lead back on either side of the integrated anchor roller and centerline windlass, with foot pedal controls to port. The integrated toe rail is capped with a bronze protective detail.
Looking aft from her bow, you'll see a clean hard cabin top with three windshield sections, each with a dedicated wiper blade and control. Her GARMIN radar dome is mounted to an equipment mast at centerline, a searchlight to starboard, horn to port and stainless steel hand rails run the full length of her cabin top roof.
