Price REDUCED for quick sale. Now $149,000 offers considered

This Newton 31 Dive Special was built by a private individual who used it for personal diving. He did not use it commercially and it was stored in a high and dry facility until it was moved to Sarasota in early 2024 where it has been used as a 6 passenger dive boat. As with all Newton Boats it is built to A.B.S. specifications with the highest quality materials so she is strong and reliable and will provide years of service. The included trailer has very few miles on it. Before the boat was sold by the original owner it was sent back to Newton where it was detailed and maintained including paint work as needed. Bottom paint has about 9 months in the water.  

The new owners replaced the electronics in 2025 with  12" and  9" Ray Marine MFDs including a Quantum 18" Q24C Radar and a new EPIRB. They also replaced the PFDs with 9 Adult and 2 Youth Offshore Lifejackets and new throw ring. The prop was reworked in 2025.

The well respected Newton custom tank racks secure 20 cylinders on aluminum seats with under seat storage. The well laid out deck and open transom make deploying and retrieving your divers easy. The quality ladder extends deeply into the water at the proper angle to make the exits comfortable.

The hull was designed for good maneuverability with a shallow draft of 2'6" loaded. The single Cummins QSB 6.7 diesel engine provides economical operation using about 14 gallons an hour. It would make a wonderful 6 passenger boat for technical or specialty diving or a very comfortable 12 passenger dive boat in the Caribbean.
