The beam is 14.5 feet and it is 15.5 feet high from the water line. The draft is only 24 inches on account of a pocket design for the running gear. It was originally owned by the Budweiser company.

It can be delivered with fresh USCG papers and a rating for up to 49 passengers. Or, if playing as opposed to working is the plan, it can be delivered with a standard recreational use document for personal or live aboard use. A little imagination is all that's needed with its MASSIVE wide open space in the salon and on the upper deck, its a real home on the water, private club house or even has possibilities for a waterfront business such as a hair salon or a restaurant with it's galley layout. If needed extra cabins can easilybe added on the main deck or on the bridge.
It has a pair of top running Cummins twin 420 hp inline 6 cylinder diesels. (3476 hours) These are the top of the line Diamond series and they'll push her along on a plane if needed yet are very economical to run and maintain. It has a top running 15 kw Westerbeke diesel generator (5776 hours) which puts out enough juice to run the digital air conditioning and heating systems, 4 commercial refrigerators including keg system. There is a hydraulic TNT lift swim platform, radar, 3210 Garmin plotter, auto pilot, windlass, powerful sound system, etc. etc. and a lot more systems. There are (2) 4 D main starting batteries (6) group 24 house batteries.. (1) group 24 generator starting battery, (1) group 24 windlass battery, (4) battery chargers. Grey and 3 black tanks w 3 macerators. Stainless steel intakes to motors and exhausts. Hydraulic helm and seating retractors.
She has one stateroom forward with a centerline queen and a separate head and shower. The salon bar galley area is one large open space continuing on to the slider to the aft deck. The bridge is wide open with hard top enclosure and 3 stairways leading abeam and aft. The bridge also has new cushions and helm enclosure. Top deck is certified to carry 27 persons. It has 3 heads with three holding tanks. (2 guest and 1 crew forward with shower).
Buyers have the following options regarding the purchase. Option 1 is to keep the current extremely qualified and knowledgeable Captain (Same captain for more than 15 years) in order to continue to run her in the charter business in Washington, DC from a prime located slip downtown. She has been a proven and consistent money maker. Or, if preferred, the yacht can be delivered under its own power at cost to any port any port on the east coast. If the buyer has plans for using the vessel in New England, I will discuss the possibility of use of a much coveted mooring that is smack dab in the middle of Historical Boston Harbor which is ideal for viewing the return of the TALL SHIPS (huge event) this June and Boston's famous week long 4th of July celebrations. .
All offers are encouraged including bed and breakfast partnerships, trades or shared ownership. Please call to discuss these options before the bidding starts as in this case I will need to let the auction run its course .. This vessel had been overly built from the already high standard of Bluewater Yacht in order to meet or exceed all USCG requirements for inspected passenger chartering and has always been captain maintained with an open check book. Please call me for a walk through of the vessel or to ask any questions. She is in Annapolis Maryland at the moment for maintenance including the changing of oils, bottom painting and readying to make her turn key. . .
Winning bidder is to PayPal a $1000 deposit immediately at auction close. All of the picture were taken this week. Video brochure as well as more pictures for the vessel are available. Questions ? Captain Tom at 617 - 455 - 2745
