Fairway 36 Flybridge Cruiser

Presenting the 1997 Fairways 36 Flybridge Cruiser "Waterhouse", a true classic of Australian boatbuilding renowned for its solid construction, practical layout, and timeless flybridge design. This vessel is genuinely one of a kind, having been owned by the same meticulous owner since 1999, with extensive service history and receipts to support her careful upkeep.

Recently returned to the water, Waterhouse has just completed a comprehensive round of maintenance in January 2026, including antifoul, PropSpeed, new anodes, full cut and polish of both hull and topsides, as well as servicing of the main engine and generator. She presents in great condition for her age and continues to run beautifully.

The rear cockpit is well set up for entertaining, featuring both a fridge and separate freezer, along with a stainless steel BBQ, creating an inviting space for relaxed cruising or evenings at anchor.

Stepping forward into the saloon, the starboard-side galley offers long benchtops, an additional fridge, microwave, and stainless sink 1 an excellent and functional space for preparing meals onboard. Opposite, the dinette and table comfortably seat up to four, making this a practical and sociable interior layout.

At the lower helm station, you ll find all engine instrumentation neatly laid out alongside a new Raymarine Axiom 9 touchscreen display, providing modern and intuitive navigation. A secondary helm station is located up on the flybridge, complete with upholstered lounges and ample space to relax while underway or at anchor, offering excellent visibility and comfort.

Below deck, the vessel features two separate cabins. The first cabin offers a closed-off bunk layout, while the forward cabin offers a twin sized bed. Both cabins share a well-appointed bathroom with toilet and shower, providing comfortable overnight accommodation for family or guests.

Powered by a single 300hp Perkins Sabre diesel engine, the Fairways 36 cruises economically at around 8 knots and can sprint up to 18 knots when required. A 6.5kVA Onan generator supplies all 240V onboard power needs, ensuring comfort and convenience wherever you cruise.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a well-loved, extensively maintained Fairways 36 with long-term ownership and recent major servicing already completed.
