Summary

This exceptional 1979 80' x 18' x 6' Documented Research Vessel, once a US Navy Yard Patrol Craft, is currently up for sale for the remarkable price of $119,000 USD. Housed in the United States, this vessel stuns with her impressive wooden hull and aluminium superstructure, both safe-guarded by copper sheeting and a steel worm shoe stretching the full length of the keel. Power comes from twin 12 V 71 Detroits, producing 400 hp each and cruising comfortably at 14 knots. Attention to detail is evident throughout, from the 7-foot headroom in the wheelhouse, cabin and engine room to the state-of-the-art electronic equipment, including GPS, radar, and depth sounder. Further features include hydraulic steering and an acceptable 2100-gallon fuel capacity. At present, the vessel is fuelled with 1200 gallons of diesel, ready for her next assignment. The comfortable living quarters accommodate a crew of eight, with two additional captain quarters, full galley and a head. This extraordinary vessel is more than just a piece of maritime history; she's a fully-equipped oceanographic research vessel, recently validated by USCG until 2025.
