$ 225,000

***** LLC OWNED *****
This exceptional cruiser is beautifully equipped with everything needed for extended
offshore adventures. The current owners have invested over $125,000 in the past five
years making Pied-à-Mer ready for extended bluewater cruising, with a focus on self-
sufficiency, comfort, and reliability. This represents exceptional value for the next owner
who inherits these thoughtful, high-quality upgrades without the wait or additional
expense.

Imagine cruising across the most beautiful blue water in complete connection with all that
is in this extraordinary vessel. She includes her own watermaker, solar energy generating
panels, new refrigeration, climate control, additional fuel tank, generator, heavy weather
ground tackle, and much more.
Space, elegance, light, and speed: a real performance-cruiser to sail the seas in
