988 Bluewater Coastal Cruiser "Manitou" – 51' Floating Lake Condo
Now available for sale, the 1988 Bluewater Coastal Cruiser "Manitou" offers a rare opportunity to own a true liveaboard-style yacht with exceptional comfort, space, and shallow-water versatility. Built in 1988 and delivered directly to Lake Winnipesaukee, Manitou has spent her entire life on these freshwater shores.
Why Bluewater?
Bluewater Yachts are known for their incredible interior volume, spacious outdoor decks, and shallow 2' draft, making them perfect for lakes, rivers, or coastal cruising. Unlike many tall-profile cruisers, Bluewaters feature a lower center of gravity due to innovative engine placement, offering a smoother and more stable ride, especially in windy or choppy conditions.
Whether you’re looking for a floating condo, an entertainment vessel, or a full-time liveaboard, the 51' Bluewater delivers unmatched versatility and comfort.
