Broker's Comments
An incredible opportunity to purchase the one and only Classic 1952 44 foot Tri-Cabin Motor Yacht ever designed by renowned Marine Architect Frank Fredette, and at a fraction of the current market value!
The owner of this boat at age 97 has reluctantly decided to sell "the finest vessel ever built" and is motivated to sell quickly as reflected in the asking price.
Most recently utilized as a half day charter sport fishing boat but has a very versatile layout and an extremely large cockpit and lazarete locker offering potential for many other applications.
The tri-cabin layout offers superior living area space in all cabins and privacy when required.
The extremely reliable, economical, and quiet Gardner 6LW diesel engine has low hours (only 3691 total) and is in excellent condition.
This gorgeous one of a kind vessel exudes character and history right from the moment you first see her when she catches your eye when you can't stop looking at her amazing design.
Act quickly as this lady will not be on the market long!
