This boat is now priced at a small fraction of the investment made by 2 previous owners that spared no expense in preparing the boat to voyage anywhere on the planet!
You are getting an unbelievable list of refit items at a fraction of their installed cost AND we are throwing in a great boat for free!
This is a classic vessel from famed designer Bruce King. Designed as Racer/Cruiser from the era when a racing boat was meant to go to SEA! It's fast high pointing and seaworthy. Take a look at the Islander 37 specs on Sailboatdata dot com. It's an ideal FAST voyager. Sorry I'm not allowed to post the link here.
Here is the meat of this offering, two obsessed owners over the last few years have gone nuts lavishing gear, equipment and labor into this vessel. Both had plans to circumnavigate, sadly neither could fulfill those dreams. This is the opportunity for you to acquire the boat that has been built to allow you to complete the voyage of a lifetime. If you want a boat where every expensive item is new or near new this is it and in a hull that is beautiful, STRONG and fast to a level unheard of today.
