Description

1991 Californian 55 Motor Yacht for sale- Pride of ownership shows everywhere throughout this spectacular 55’ Californian cockpit motor yacht. She has been meticulously maintained and updated by the owner who is a professional Captain & Marine Surveyor, she has served as a full-time live-aboard and active cruising yacht since 2003.

This luxurious motor yacht boasts many upgrades and amenities throughout, from elegant and spacious accommodations to her stylish lines and a flush-deck profile that prove to be a well-thought-out American yacht design. She is tastefully decorated with accommodations comfortable from sleeping 8 plus to entertaining large groups of friends and family.

She has been constantly updated over the past 20 years with a keen eye on cruising the Great Loop and island hopping the Bahamas in comfort. She is destined to bring her new owners many good years of safe and fine cruising enjoyment or as a luxurious live-a-board condo on the water wherever the seas take you.

She is one of only a few ever made of “55 ft class” (60’ 11” OAL) Hardtop Flybridge Cockpit Motor Yacht w/ a three (3) stateroom, three (3) full head, galley down layout with a spacious full beam master cabin and open salon & deck house/sunroom. She has 100% fully climate-controlled interior spaces (including the helm) and a 7’ cockpit with aft controls located in the deck house.

She is equipped with twin Detroit Diesel 6-71TIB (485hp) main engines and a 20kw Onan (Cummins) generator. She was originally built as a “Carver Sales/Show Boat” for the VP of Sales and boasts factory upgrade options not seen on very many models such as a hardtop w/integrated radar arch, Solar Panels and inverter, deck house/sunroom slider side windows, and recessed cabinetry in the Salon.

The seller and current owner is the 4th owner, with verifiable operational history for the past 21 years. The vessel has been rated as “above average” on surveys from 2003, 2009, 2013, 2015 engine survey, 2016, and 2020. Detailed maintenance records from 2003 to the current date are available.

NOTES ON ENGINES: Engines are all running well. The past 2 owners have run the boat consistently since 2003 at low load levels (1125 ~ 1550 RPMs or about 0.3hp/cid) and done regular maintenance at 100-hour intervals or sooner, as required. Recent oil samples are available. In comparison, Detroit Diesel 2-stroke engines that are ran at or above 0.8hp/cid up to the max hp/cid can result in a shorter engine life.
