EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY FOR LONG RANGE CRUISING YACHT!
"OBSERVER" is a fully found go anywhere vessel. She was built of steel as a research vessel in 1966 by Blount Marine. Recently she was reconfigured to be a personal yacht capable of taking her owners anywhere in the world in safety. Her interior has been designed and crafted by a very knowledgeable yachtsman. She has 5 independent Air/Heating systems allowing to be at home both in the tropics or the icy waters of Alaska. With her strong and sound hull, economical Detroit Diesel, (2) 25kw generators as well as 1,200 gallons of fuel, freezer and watermaker allow her to be independent for weeks if not months. Easily handled by a couple but can accommodate up to 12 guests. She is must see, one of a kind vessel that's ready for new adventures.
