1975 Gulfstar M53 (53 ft) Motor Sailer Ketch

1975 Gulfstar M53 (53 ft) Motor Sailer Ketch
Equipment
This vessel was fully restored as a commercial luxury charter yacht in 2020 including mast refurbishment with new standing and running rigging, complete interior refurb, new paint job (entire vessel), sails restitched, addition of full commercial galley and a custom pilot house.
She was involved in a collision and we have decided to close our business and sell her as is.
The vessel is damaged (port-side amidship) and can be repaired as a beautiful live aboard - but no longer as a commercial charter. The vessel is fully functional with all hull systems operating as they should. She will require repair of main mast standing rigging (broken spreaders) but all rigging wire masts and steps are undamaged. She has a 360 HP John Deere Turbo Diesel (well cared for and running strong) powering a Twin Disc Transmission with a single screw; 16KW Phasor 2 Diesel Generator 110/220 (Also running strong); all navigation, communication and safety gear are present and functioning and she will make way under power with no propulsion, navigation or communication issues. The vessel has a large windlass with twin anchors on chain, a 24V bow thruster, a custom swim platform, she is wired for a dive compressor and a second generator on deck, she has a large solar system, auto fire extinguishing system, VHF, AIS, Radar, SSB, and is wired for wind generation up the mizzen mast (with mounts attached).
Many extras and spares.
Damage: significant impact to port side amidship that requires main mast chain plate repair, hullside fiberglass and structural repair, interior cabinetry and interior built in repair. The vessel has been “patched” to protect from the elements - we motored her 120 miles to the boat yard in the open Gulf (Ft Meyers to St Pete). There is a 4” crack below waterline that does not leak. This vessel will be sold as is. Clear title is on hand. Vessel is USCG Documented.
The vessel is currently on the hard and can be seen by appointment in St Petersburg FL. If we don't sell at $25K, she will be donated for the tax write off.
