Description
This pilothouse was designed and built in British Columbia and is a fantastic all-weather cruising sailboat for our coast. Having just returned from a cruise, she is ready to take you around the Gulf Islands, Desolation Sound, or further afield. With multiple heating systems and a centre cockpit with a hard top dodger, this a perfect all-season cruiser.
The desirable moorage at Stones Marine is transferable with management approval.
The large pilothouse offers year-round protection from sun, rain, wind, and cold. Forward is an incredibly welcoming cabin made for enjoying your time at anchor or at the dock. Going down the companionway, there is a full galley to starboard and a comfortable dinette to port with a built-in chessboard. The main salon has a built-in ‘captain’ lounge chair, bench seating with a double berth to starboard and a bulhead-mounted diesel heater that offers ambiance and warmth. The salon is classically designed with a rich, wood interior and is a space made for reading books and telling stories late into the night. Aft of the pilothouse is a separate cabin with a comfortable queen berth and private head with storage.
With a 2023 pre-purchase survey available that describes the engine room as being in 'beyond-excellent' condition, this boat is worth coming to see if you are in the market for a comfortable West Coast cruiser.
