Fiberglass/Reinforced
In 2002, the previous owner replaced the original Detroit engines with larger and more modern engines, along with a complete list of refit upgrades that includes a hardtop. As one of the most popular models in the Offshore Yacht line, the 55' Pilothouse is well-proportioned and comfortable for her size, featuring three staterooms and two heads, with separate access to the mid-ship Master cabin from the salon. This makes her the perfect yacht for cruising with friends and family.
A little history... This boat was purchased in 2001 by an experienced Offshore owner who had just sold his third new-build Offshore Yacht. Familiar with the brand, I asked this client to inspect her for me while I was out of town, and he made an offer on the spot. The deal was closed shortly thereafter. The client took her to a yard for refurbishments, replacing the engines, transmissions, most appliances, and countertops, adding a hardtop, and painting her. He then shipped her to Newport Beach. I showcased her at the Newport Beach Boat Show a few years later. On the first day, a wonderful couple boarded and instantly fell in love. The new owner jokingly asked me to "get everyone off her boat." Those attendees ended up purchasing her from the show and cruised her up and down the coast for several years. After some time, I listed her again, and the current owner had the same reaction upon boarding. The new owner moved aboard and has enjoyed living on her for the past four years. Due to a change of plans, the 55' is back on the market, and I look forward to taking you aboard so you can tell me to "get all these folks off my boat."
