Owner Provided Description/comments

This 1988 Jefferson Monticello motor yacht is a well-maintained and extensively upgraded vessel, offering a perfect blend of classic design and modern conveniences. It has primarily been a freshwater boat, contributing to its excellent condition and longevity. The thru hulls are in great shape, and the stainless fittings and fixtures remain in top-notch condition. The galley and aft salon have been updated, providing a stylish and functional living space for extended cruises or liveaboard options and is equipped with a Victron 48V Multiplus system, paired with 48V 400-watt solar panels, ensuring reliable power management for off-grid cruising.

Comfort is enhanced with new Raritan electric heads and a new hot water heater with a coil for improved hot water supply. The yacht also features new cranking batteries installed in 2022, alongside recent upgrades to the generator, including new pumps, hoses, a muffler, and a battery, ensuring smooth operation. Sanitary hoses have been replaced, contributing to the overall maintenance quality of the vessel.

The social areas include a nice wet bar, perfect for entertaining, and well-preserved brightwork and aft deck teak that showcase the yacht's timeless beauty. Additional features include spare props and a stainless anchor for reliability and peace of mind. For onboard entertainment, the salon is equipped with a pop-up 43" TV and surround sound, providing a luxurious touch for relaxing moments onboard.

The flybridge offers an excellent vantage point with a comfortable upper helm, featuring a new captain's chair. A bimini top provides shade, and also includes a BBQ grill, perfect for outdoor cooking and entertaining while enjoying panoramic views from the elevated deck.

The remodeled galley is designed for both convenience and style. It features a large refrigerator, providing ample storage for extended trips. A multi-function countertop oven, paired with an induction stovetop, allows for versatile cooking options, while a new dishwasher and garbage disposal adds modern functionality to this classic yacht.

The engine room is clean and well-maintained, housing reliable 3208 Caterpillar engines with under 1,700 hours of use. Recent upgrades include new fuel lines and an electric oil change system, simplifying maintenance. A recently certified fire extinguishing system ensures safety, while the clean bilges reflect the vessel’s meticulous upkeep.

The main helm includes a newer Garmin touch screen MFD, loud hailer, and VHF, as well as a security/observation camera system.

This is by no means a new boat but I believe it to be one of the better examples in its class. We bought the boat planning to spend a year or two doing the great loop but health issues changed our plans.

If you are looking to use iit primarily as a liveaboard, Little River, SC boasts several very nice marinas and a great liveaboard community.
