General condition: Mechanically, this unit has been well cared for and shows very well. It is immediately apparent when inspecting the bilge. In April 2025, the elbows, manifolds, and turbos were replaced. In terms of aesthetics, some updates could be considered, but this vessel remains in very good condition for its 36 years.
Exterior: The hull and superstructure show no particular issues. The gelcoat has some light surface crazing on the thinner parts, but after polishing / buffing, the boat will regain a nice shine.
Interior: The boat is well maintained on the inside, the carpets are original and in good condition. Always protected. The upholstery has been well preserved. The kitchen area is in good condition, although a deterioration of the sink should be monitored. All the paneling is in good condition. No signs of detachment or infiltration are observed.
Mechanical: The engine bay is very clean. It is rare to see late 80s units with such clean and dry bilge floors. The engines look visually very good. No significant leaks or rust has been observed. Both engines start immediately and showed no anomalies during our inspection. A major mechanical overhaul was performed in April 2025 including elbows, manifolds, and turbos. The antifouling is scheduled for early July.
Electronics: The boat has many electronic devices, but most are now obsolete. The autopilot and VHF are still operational.
