Emily J - A Beautifully Converted Ex-Trawler, Perfect for Family Bay Cruising, Long-Range Adventures, or Liveaboard Living!

Emily J is a truly unique vessel that has been expertly transformed from an ex-trawler into a fully-equipped family bay cruiser, long-range cruiser, or liveaboard boat. With all the hard work already completed, this timber beauty is ready for you to start your next adventure on the water.

Key Features:
o High-Quality Construction: The frame is crafted from ironbark, and the planks are made from spotted gum, ensuring durability and strength.
o Upgrades Galore: The current owner has completed extensive upgrades, including the addition of a midships cabin and complete rewiring (12V + 240V) throughout the vessel. Solar power is also installed, ensuring energy independence on long trips.
o Eutectic Refrigeration: A top-of-the-line refrigeration system with three separate compartments (including a brine freezer) is installed on the rear deck for all your cooling needs.
o Spacious Layout: The wide walk-around decks make it easy to move around, and there are multiple entry points to the cabin, including access midships starboard side and at the helm port side.
o Well-Equipped Helm: The helm is fitted with a Furuno sounder, radar, and a TMQ auto-pilot, making navigation and control a breeze.
o Comfortable Sleeping Quarters: Forward in the bow, you'll find four bunks. The galley, located on the starboard side, features a single-burner cooktop and a 12V fridge/freezer. The dinette is located portside, and behind it are stairs leading down to the midships berth with two single bunks.
o Outdoor Entertainment Space: The large aft deck is perfect for lounging and entertaining, complete with a family-sized BBQ on top of the fridge/freezer.
o Tender & Toy Storage: The stern is equipped with a davit for a tender, while the roof has a davit crane and two spots for additional toys, such as a fishing tinny or jet ski.
o Efficient Power & Fuel Economy: Powered by a reliable 300HP Cummins engine, Emily J cruises comfortably at 8 knots, using just 15L per hour. The Isuzu 22kVA genset ensures you have all the power you need for extended stays.

Whether you're looking for a vessel to take your family on weekend bay cruises, explore distant coastal destinations, or live aboard in comfort, Emily J is the perfect choice.
