PROJECT... PROJECT.. PROJECT BLANK CANVAS.
ORIGINALLY BUILT TO SURVEY.... [ NOT IN SURVEY NOW AND IT IS QUICKER TO DRAW AND BUILD A NEW VESSEL THAN TO TRY TO GET THIS BACK IN SURVEY. ] THIS PROJECT WILL APPEAL TO A PRIVATE VESSEL OWNER.

Great long range serious offshore vessel when finished.
This is not a plastic pop out drinkies darling type of a vessel, and it should appeal to a master mariner, commercial mariner, marine engineer, or a experienced metal fabricator. If you have some trade and organisational skills, then this is a worthwhile project. When finished this is an ocean crossing vessel

Massive aft deck for toys and fishing.

Built new in late 1980, s NEVER LAUNCHED.
Rick James [ NAVAL ARCHITECT] designed hull. [ need we say more]

There is a combination of fuel and water tanks but as a guide, the fuel would amount to 12,000 litres and the water would also amount to 12000 litres depending on how the tanks were set up.

New stainless steel bulwarks have recently been fitted.
New stainless steel stairs have been fitted to the accommodation area below.
The boat comes with a rudder / propellor and prop shaft

Remarks
This project will appeal to a person who would like to create their own ideas in a well proven design.
The sister ship has already completed a circumnavigation of the globe

To fabricate this boat today, to this stage, and to this standard would be north of $800,000. So this is a good place to start.

Please call Jim Stuart on to organise an inspection
