This model was originally built with the galley down. The previous owner wanted more sleeping space so he moved the galley up to the starboard side of the saloon. This allowed the addition of two bunks on the starboard side. The conversion was professionally and attractively made.

There is a built-in refrigerator but the owner disconnected the refrigeration unit and used the ice box on the aft deck . A new refrigeration unit can be reinstalled.

When you enter the saloon from the cockpit there is a two person dinette on the starboard side that has a folding table. The couch is opposite the dinette on the port side. The galley is now located forward starboard in the saloon.

The lower helm is on the forward port side of the saloon.

Going forward there are two bunk berths to starboard with the head/shower to port. All the way froward is single berth to port.
There is easy access to the flybridge from the cockpit and a large space on the bridge for deck chairs.

Post Yacht Builders are still building boats in Chestertown, MD. Russell Post started the Egg Harbor Yacht Company in the early 50s and sold it in 1955. His retirement didn't last long and in 1957 he started the Post Yacht Co.

This boat is kept under cover and in fresh water. All of the external woodwork appears in like-new condition.

The twin 427 Ford FE Chris-Craft engines are original but were rebuilt 1500 hours ago.

Hull construction is of cedar and mahogany with white oak frames. The cockpit deck is teak. This model is also referred to as a "Fisher-Cruiser".

It is hard to find a vessel of this era in such fine condition.
