Gorgeous blue-water trawler, already in the Caribbean!
Now at a well respected Marina with new bottom paint and a fresh detail + oil change. Ready for an easy downwind leg to Florida, a dream trip for any captain!
This rugged and classic lined trawler has been carefully maintained and operated by a few long time owners since new. Continuously updated to reflect current technology (high output solar panels, Lithium batteries) and a litany of upgrades over the years, "Mahalo ke Akua" has the classic line that makes your head turn (expect a lot of compliments every time you are in a marina) and offers excellent fuel efficiency / range with a very sea-kindly motion. Two large staterooms, Portuguese bridge, fly-bridge, a full set of Garmin electronics, large tender and so much more.
58' feet LOA, and 51' over deck
"Mahalo ke Akua" is already in Grenada and is turn-key. You can be cruising this winter. Replacement cost for a >50' trawler is well over $2m. This one is priced to sell quick.
Layout
Starting at the bow looking aft, this 58' blue water trawler has a large forward deck that ends at the center-line door. Her "Portuguese Bridge" wraps around the forward area of the vessel. As one moves aft, she has covered side decks that continue around to the aft deck. Along the side decks on port she has a door to the pilot house and on starboard she has a side door to the pilot house and a 2nd one just aft into the salon level. Her side and alt decks are covered with solid hand laid teak.
Entering the salon through the aft deck there is a bar to the port side. Moving forward she has a built in L-Shaped Settee with a hi-low table on port and 2 x lounge chairs (one reclining, one massage chair) to starboard. The galley is forward of the settee and features solid surface countertops. Just forward she has a storage cabinet and sliding side door to the exterior, Beneath the salon floor there is more storage full width and features teak cabinetry and a 24-bottle wine rack. Along the wall towards the pilot house there is a pantry and washer/dryer combo. Moving up two steps to the pilot house she has a wide seat with table along the aft wall, interior stairway over her bridge, lower helm with chart storage forward and side doors both port and starboard. Two levels have teak flooring. As you move down to the stateroom level, she has two staterooms along with a private head for each. On starboard she has a massive stall shower with entrances to both the master and guest stateroom. She has a separate vanity with head for the master. The guest stateroom has a custom full berth along the starboard hull and head and vanity to starboard. Aft of the guest stateroom there is an area for storage, workbench and entrance to the engine room. Her engine room has standing head room forward, battery storage followed by her main engines and generator. The stateroom flooring is cork and head and shower areas are tile.
The fly-bridge has a full helm with a custom helm seat. She has L-shaped settee both port and starboard and is followed by the dinghy deck which has a davit and tender. The fly-bridge deck is teak and dinghy deck is painted. This yacht has been very well maintained since new. Manuals and records are on board. Overall cruising over the last few years she has averaged 1.3 nautical miles per gallon.
Background on the builder: Only every so often does a vessel of this pedigree come to market. The Halvorsen Family moved to Cape Town, South Africa in 1924 and then Lars and his son Harold moved to Sydney, Australia in 1925 to build boats (the family came later), From 1925 to 1980 they built over 1500 vessels for individuals and the military. In 1960 Harvey Halvorsen (Lars' Grandson and Harold's Son) became the company designer and in 1975 he partnered with Joseph Kong (former American Marine General Manager) to form Kong & Halvorsen. Over the next 2 decades they built 100's of vessels from 34 to 134 feet under the Kong & Halvorsen, Island Gypsy and Halvorsen names. In 1985 Joseph Kong passed away and the Halvorsen family has continued building. At present over 900 plus Halvorsen influenced boats have been built in China and exported. Yachts like these rarely come on the market.
