She is coast guard registered and everything is current until July of 2025 Hull cleaned and new zincs in August 2024.
Center cockpit, with high free board and a fully flush deck creates a huge amount of bow deck space and prevents most splashing unless in really big water.
Perfect live aboard. You could own your own place vs renting in San Diego which is the most unaffordable housing area in America. Where else can you own your own home, on the water, for such a small HOA equivalent fee? No Condo can match its privacy and views.it's your best chance to own a 2 bed room coastal cruiser. Only one day travel away from Catalina! Can you sail? If not this boat is equiped with a powerful nearly new engine that can cruise underpower at nearly 7 knots and can get you anywhere any fishing trawler can go. You need this boat!
Fantastic Live aboard with a lot of room.

THE GEM OF THIS BOAT is a nearly new 4 cylinder 50hp diesel with less than 100 hours on it. Look at the pictures this is a basically a brand new engine. (more pics of engine are available) Engine has been maintained with oil changes, filter cleanings and tune ups and has a new starter battery in summer of 2023 and a 50 gal fuel tank. The engine room under the cockpit is very large and you can easily get to the engine to provide maintenance. It is not in a tiny little cubby under the gangway or under a hatch. If do not know how to sail with this stout reliable inboard diesel you are getting a well powered motor sailor that will get you where you want to go.
She has fresh top paint. Needs some work (as almost all boats do) on the interior. I planned on sailing her to Hawaii (where I live now) and the foam headliner was removed as a foamy headline is absolutely terrible in the warm tropical climate in Hawaii. I did not replace it yet. So for you the demo has been done and you can now finish it however you wish.
She is in Mission Bay and the slip is non-transferable. You need to speak with the marina office about this. If approved you can take possession of the slip as I am giving it up at the time of sale. Current slip fee is $600. Or you can move her to another marina with for a live aboard situation.
Remember you can always make a bigger boat nicer, but you can not make a nice small boat bigger!
