Napa Ga Tor Boat | 53' Navigator 1998

Napa Gator is a remarkably well-kept example of the highly regarded Navigator 5300 Pilothouse offering the ideal balance of liveaboard comfort, coastal cruising performance, and timeless styling. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated, this yacht is a three-stateroom, two-head layout with features that rival much newer vessels.

Powered by twin Volvo TAMD63 370HP diesel engines with under 1,500 hours, she delivers reliable, efficient performance through ZF transmissions, 2 stainless shafts, and 4-blade bronze props. A Kohler 13.5kW generator with approx. 2,100 hours supports full onboard autonomy, and the 50-amp electrical system with a 3kW Heart Interface inverter and Pro Mariner 80-amp charger keeps systems powered whether at dock or at anchor.

Inside, the salon is open, bright, and welcoming featuring light-stained cabinetry, a starboard-side sofa, port lounge chair, and entertainment center. The galley is on the same level and fully outfitted with KitchenAid appliances, including a two-burner cooktop, convection microwave, under-counter refrigerator/freezer drawers, and a raised breakfast bar for casual dining.

Two steps up, the pilothouse offers a commanding helm with a single captain's chair, full Garmin navigation suite, Wesmar bow thruster controls, and port/starboard deck doors. A wood stairway leads to the flybridge, where you'll find vast U-shaped seating, a wet bar with Jenn-Air grill, custom bimini, synthetic decking, tender storage, and a davit crane?creating a true outdoor entertainment space.

Below, accommodations include a full-beam master stateroom with en-suite head and VacuFlush toilet, a forward VIP stateroom with private access to the guest head and stall shower, and a third guest cabin with a single twin berth. The companionway also includes a privacy door to separate the forward accommodations from the rest of the boat. A GE Spacemaker washer/dryer in the master adds a liveaboard-friendly touch.

The engine room is easily accessed via cockpit and galley hatches, with excellent headroom, clean layout, and a built-in drawer-style tool chest for onboard maintenance. With its solid mechanical pedigree, extensive comfort upgrades, and exceptionally clean condition, Napa Gator is a rare opportunity for serious cruisers.

She's not a Great Loop veteran, but she's certainly ready to go.
