Rare Opportunity for a proven Downeast Cruiser on the West Coast

This 2001 (Commissioned in 2003) 36' Northern Bay built was built on a traditional lobster commercial hull designed by Spencer Lincoln, with a custom yacht finish built by West Bay Boats in Steuben, Maine. The ride is comfortable, stable and delivers excellent cruising range at displacement speed and fast cruising with economy, and performance. She also offers a flybridge with full controls for ease of boat handling and nice weather cruising. She is powered with a Yanmar 6CXM 465HP that has been completely rebuilt by a certified Yanmar dealer and cruises comfortably at 18 knots or slow her down to displacement speed for 3+NMPG. She also has a newer Fischer Panda 4kw generator. She offers great cruising range with her fuel and fresh water capacity. An Espar diesel heater provides heat for comfort on long trips. She is a great boat for couples with the forward master and has a drop down dinette to accommodate guests.
