Description: Caribbean 235 Crusader with Updated V8 Mercruiser EFI
The Caribbean 23 Crusader is an awesome sea boat and are even better from this era with a heavy standard of construction compared to later models. This classic workhorse has benefited from an engine upgrade to a 260Hp EFI Mercruiser and has been in regular use with great service records. The hull has never been antifouled so there are no secrets with no signs of damage, testament to construction methods of the day. Updated features to increase functionality include a Lewmar electric anchor winch, 80Ltr fresh water tank, 80Ltr auxiliary fuel tank and a Hummingbird GPS and Sounder unit. The forward cabin has a V-Berth double bed or two singles for the annual fishing trip along with a chemical toilet to keep the entire family happy. Solar panels have been installed on the raised hardtop so an Engel can be operated for weekends away. There is a lot to like about this very capable Caribbean that is let down by the deteriorating, low grade, EVA foam decking that was installed by a previous owner and although in excellent condition, the trailer will need to be upgraded to 2013 requirements when you can find a mate to lend a hand. Genuinely offered for sale as the the owner is heading off around Australia and it has been priced accordingly. This is a boat that is ready to be put to work immediately so grab a mate and grab a bargain.
