53' Vic Franck 1969 Honey

Newport Beach, CA, US

Previously Asking $250,000

Off Market

Description

Built in Freemont, Washington by the famous Vic Franck Shipyard, and in conjunction with designer Lynn Senour (known for boats like Delta Charter boats, Grandy, Nordic Tugs and American Tug), the Marlineer Sportfish stands out above all other Senours designs. Birthed at a time where port services were limited, one would have to be self sufficient for long periods of time at sea. This Marlineer 'Honey' has stood up to the challenge. With her oversized deep freezer storage and near 17ft beam making her a solid ride in rough seas offshore, she is made for comfort with all the amenities for entertaining, cruising the high seas and fishing hard.

 

Key features include:

  • New anti-foul bottom paint - May 2021
  • Highly sought-after transferable moorage on Balboa Island, Newport Beach for under market price
  • Epoxy coated hull and superstructure
  • Updated Furuno TZT Navigation Electronics
  • FLIR night vision thermal camera
  • New commercial Lugger engines in 2005
  • Village Marine Water maker - serviced May 2021
  • High end galley appliances
  • Bennett trim tabs
