Great Value!
Well Kept 39' Veteran Southern California Sportfisher. Cat powered with many recent upgrades including new fuel tanks!
The Symbol brand was built almost exclusively for the US market. The factory in Kaohsiung, Taiwan has established a solid reputation for building good quality boats. The boat's wide beam allows for a large cabin and cockpit, good stability at rest and a comfortable ride. The large cockpit allows for plenty of room on deck for gatherings and includes a double compartment bait tank. The flybridge can accommodate up to 6 people and has direct access to the tuna-tower. The cabin's double wide doors allow a sit-down water view from inside. The 2-stateroom layout, along with the salon's futon couch, allows comfortable sleeping for six. The master stateroom features an island double bed, a cedar-lined hanging locker, significant storage and direct access to the head through a second door. The mid-cabin features 2 over-sized bunks, a full-length hanging locker and storage. The boat has been used in Southern California primarily for local fishing, cruising and diving. This two-owner boat has been well cared for and maintained on a regular basis. The engine hours have mostly been at a trolling speed of less than 8 knots. Significant improvements and updates are included below.
