Best for

  • Couples wanting a compact long-range cruising layout
  • Great Loop and inland/coastal cruising
  • Buyers wanting single-diesel simplicity with flybridge visibility

Trade-offs

  • Flybridge adds windage and air draft
  • Fast-cruise capability comes with higher fuel burn than displacement operation
  • One-cabin layout is less private for extended guest cruising

Known concerns

  • No model-specific concern has been promoted to B-Atlas’s evidence threshold. This does not mean the model has no age-, condition- or hull-specific risks.

Inspection focus

  • Inspect flybridge structure, helm controls and weather exposure
  • Inspect single-diesel cooling, exhaust, shaft and stern gear
  • Inspect saloon windows, side door and deck penetrations for leaks
  • Inspect fuel, water, sanitation and electrical systems
