Description:
Looking for a quality long distance cruiser or comfortable live aboard? This one fits the bill. Beautiful flag blue hull, no teak decks, and many recent upgrades. The current owner had a change of plans. This cutter features a raked stern, an aft cockpit and moderate fin keel with internal ballast. The rudder is detached, with a full skeg and stainless shoe. Her hull is heavily laid up molded fiberglass hull with molded stringers, stiffeners and transverse bulkheads.
Accomodations
Seaquel has a comfortable aft cockpit with an off-center companionway leading to a warm , richly varnished interior with plenty of opening hatches. The lexan ports trimmed with SS, lexan in the hatches, the overhead lining and countertops, cabin lighting and forest green upholstery and port coverings are all new in the last few years. Starting at the forward cabin, is a v-berth w/ mattress and 2 hanging lockers. Just aft and to port is the forward head. Amidships, the main salon has a U- shaped dinette to port with elegantly curved seating across from a settee to starboard with storage lockers above. The U-shaped, curved countertop galley is to port and the large chart navigation table facing to starboard is across from the galley and to starboard. A quarter berth with lee cloth is to starboard with cabinets above and below. The aft head and a closet for pantry or wet locker is located across from the quarter-berth on the port side followed by a private double cabin.
The U-shaped galley is secure at sea and large enough to be comfortable in port. It features a three burner Shipmate propane stove, newly insulated refrigeration w/ new 2002 Grunert 12v system, new double sink, faucets, and hand pump close to midline for good drainage, ample countertops with new laminate and plenty of storage.
