Remarks :SILVER GIRL is a great example of a hand-crafted flybridge cruiser with USA design and Taiwanese manufacturing pedigree.
With twin 475hp Caterpillar Diesels she will accommodate 6 in comfort in 2 cabins and a converting saloon with Japanese light oak joinery and hardwood parquet flooring. The saloon is full width so offers a massive living space with a separate dinette and galley.
The forward Master cabin, which again is full boat width with a double island berth, comes with en-suite facilities while the midships guest cabin has a twin bunks and plenty of stowage. The easily accessible enclosed fly bridge has plenty of seating and good visibility. The sheltered aft deck offers additional area for relaxation or entertaining.
