Description

I guess we’d have to call this an offshore cruiser. Current Owner purchased her in 2016 in Langkawi, Maylasia. He installed a new engine, then took her for a trial run doing a clockwise loop of the South Pacific.

Back in Maylasia, he took a deep breath, then headed out again, sailing by South Africa on his way to the Caribbean, eventually arriving in Fort Lauderdale. He thinks he’s got sailing out of his system momentarily and desires a quick sale before he changes his mind. If you are looking for a well equipped , ready to go, blue water cruiser for not a lot of money, here you go. Time to stop dreaming and get the lead out.

Note: photos were taken shortly after arrival and do not show the clean interior of a harbor queen. We expect a more orderly “look” as they get settled down. It’s a long way from Maylasia.

However, there are no untoward fragrances. She presents rather clean, all things considered.

From the comfortable cockpit, you clear the companionway and find yourself down below. At the base of the ladder, there is a proper offshore galley to port and a nav station to starboard.

Going forward into the main salon, there is an L-Shaped settee and table to port and a settee to starboard. Forward of the main salon is the guest cabin with head and shower.

The furniture is varnished Teak, with a Teak and Holly sole. Considering her age, most surfaces look very good.

Excellent lighting and a fan taking advantage of galley top hatch and portholes, make cooking in this galley a delight.
