This Mainship 37 Aft Cabin Motor Yacht was a very innovative design when introduced in 1995 with several unique features. Most Motor Yachts in this category have an open front windshield in the cabin but not the Mainship 37. This allows fora very unusual interior configuration with the step down Galley and Dinette completely merged into the salon. The result is a cavernous main cabin area with a sculptured overhead and extraordinary headroom throughout. While the salon windows are located at head-level, there is an unusual starboard side window at the dinette level opposite the galley. Given the extravagant salon dimensions, its hardly a surprise that the staterooms are small - a nice trade-off. The aft deck is also small, but the flybridge is huge with a centerline helm station and wrap around seating for 8 companions. Because of her narrow side decks, a walk-through in the forward flybridge brow provides direct access to the foredeck. She also features molded in steps, a full weather enclosure on the flybridge and a hardtop on the aft deck. This one is super clean with no "old boat" smells and all systems are functional and upgraded as needed. Bottom paint is fresh and mechanical service is up to date. This one will make a great live-aboard, coastal cruiser or just a place to hang out on the weekends. Call today and start making your plans for some quality time on the water.
Overnight accommodations for 4 adults in 2 private staterooms and 2 heads each with shower stalls. Roomy and spacious salon with lots of natural lighting.
The Galley is very functional and is located to the port side one step down from the salon and directly accross from the dinette. It features all necessary appliances and a new refrigerator/freezer.
The co-owner of this vessel is mechanically inclined and has kept the mechanical systems in top working order. All Risers and Manifolds have been replaced, the generator runs great and the air conditioners blow cold. All engine service is up to date as well as the bottom paint.
Very nice aft deck with hard top, wet bar, deck chairs and protective railing. Molded steps from the swim platform. Underwater lights! Flybridge enclosure with roll up windows, centerline door in the brow to access the foredeck and seating for 8 adults - all vinyls have been replaced. The boat is very clean and shows nicely.
