Some History

The current owners purchased the yacht in Florida in 2018, where they used it for a couple years and then brought it to Mystic, CT where it has been since. A marine mechanic in the family performs all routine maintenance including winterizing all systems, oil/filter changes in the fall with family members contributing to DIY ablative bottom paint/zincs, washing, waxing, etc... in the spring. The vessel has clearly been very-well cared for based on its overall cosmetic condition, all systems in good working well, and recent upgrades to keep things looking new.
