Overview
About this vessel
One of NZ's best classic luxury cruisers. Lovingly restored by successive owners over many years, it is now time to hand over to the next custodian of this beautiful motor launch.
Launched 1979, GRP construction and powered by a completely rebuilt 210hp Detroit diesel motor (only 900 hours use) along with a completely rebuilt gear box (in Feb 2023), the running gear on this boat is like new. "MIDAS" cruises comfortably at 10kts (averaging 10–12 litres per hour) but is capable of 16–18 knots if needed.
The interior has been professionally restored with 6.1" headroom, factory teak floor and carpeting, 2 cabins (1 double and the other with 2 single berths), and a saloon fitted with a pull-out double and another single — this is a family boat comfortably sleeping 7+ people. An excellent galley features a fridge and separate freezer, with 2 super-sized chilly bins included for storage or big fish. The boat is wired for shore power (EWOF 2023) and comes with a microwave and numerous kitchen and dining accoutrements.
The hard top flybridge offers great visibility and ample seating to enjoy. An extensive electronics package is on board, and there have been many upgrades over the years, most recently with the addition of a bow thruster for greater manoeuvrability. A comprehensive list is available upon request.
The owner has just had her in the boat builder's shed, spending more money on a paint touch-up etc to make her look good, over and above the existing engine rebuild in 2007. The heat exchanger has just been reconditioned with a new water pump impeller. She's all ready for the new season. The owner wants the boat sold now and has reduced the price to $120,000.
