"If only I could find a really nice Krogen 48 North Sea for somewhere less than $600"..... well, here she is. This is a really nice and well cared for boat. Engine room very clean, service history impressive, just spent almost $20K to check all the little boxes in her annual spa visit for sale. You might decide to update some electronics, but the boat is solid, fully equipped, well kept and turn-key.
She is ready and more than able to take you anywhere on the planet with complete confidence at a more than fair price. So when you all told us this is what you needed at the boat shows....were you serious? Because here she is.
Owners have had their adventures and has priced her not to linger. Best value in a 48 I have seen in a long time. **Note that due to scheduling/travel... these photos were taken a couple of weeks ago when she just arrived ie: no detailing or de-cluttering and she still looks very nice. However, she has since been prepared and more photos will be coming soon.
