Broker's Comment:
"Charles A" is a meticulously cared for vessel. Sold new in August of 2004 she has always been used in fresh water of the Great lakes. Her current owner, a former sailor has kept her here in Erie. PA. Recently he and his wife took a trip to the Thousand Islands using the Erie ad Oswego canals and Lake Ontario. Comfortable cruising through scenic New York. I helped her owner refuel and was privileged to pilot her from his Yacht Club to another Marina's fuel dock. What a great handling vessel. Checking his log, he determined he had averaged 2.8 Gallons per hour fuel consumption. Wow!
Additions he has added are new upholstery in the salon and bridge deck, a custom made winter cover, a new water heater and CO2 and smoke alarms. The electronics have had all the recent software upgrades. I have had the pleasure of listing 2 other vessels he has owned including a new 2006 39' sailboat he purchased though RCR Yachts. Each was kept with loving care and were in "nearly new" condition. The vessel name, "Charles A," is a reference to family history of river pilots.
