They have ~2,130 hrs on the engines.  

Setup for fishing with two bait tanks, outriggers and rod holders. 

The boat does NOT have a generator set or A/C but there is plenty of room to add them.

 - All the seacocks and through-hulls were replaced with Marelon seacocks that are epoxied into the hull.  

 -The windlass was replaced with a Lewmar Profish, a new inverter and battery charger were installed and all 4 batteries were replaced with AGM batteries.  

- Both motors have new mounts, new turbos from Atlantic Turbo and the heat exchangers were removed, hot tanked and pressure tested.  

- The belts and hoses were replaced throughout. 

- The shafts were pulled and new cutlass bearings were installed, the dripless shaft seals were replaced and the props were tuned.  

- A new microwave was installed and all outlets were replaced with new GFI outlets.

 - The interior cushions are in great shape, the cushions on the bridge will need to be replaced at some point.
