VESSEL HISTORY, LAYOUT and EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION:
Lady J
Galley and Built in Dinette is forward of the salon and lower level, with a builtin microwave, electric stove, large working oven, and refrigerator, all easily accessed on the port side. The dining settee, recently fully recovered with great fabric and new easy clean sidewall vinyl is starboard of the galley. The Salon has an expansive custom couch with the same fabric as the dinette, has storage below the cushions. Aft is an expansive upper fully enclosed ‘California Deck' as it’s called, has custom teak furniture. This space makes for wonderful dockside and cruising comfort, and entertaining, as well as a fantastic layout for dock parties. Easily sleep 7, or 8, with room for more if using the aft deck. An amazing family boat. And as a potential Liveaboard, this is the yacht that can provide a home, and then pull away from the dock and really go places! She was moved on her own hull from Southern California to Blaine, WA in 2021, and has cruised the San Juan and Gulf Islands as recently as September 2023. Dual Detroit 6v92TA Turbo Diesel engines give stability and power when needed. With two generators, its possible to get the extra power when needed from the 15KW main, or the 8Kw auxiliary generator.
**ASSUMABLE MOORAGE:
This is truly an outstanding boat for the next owner.
