Overview

About this vessel

ME TOO is a custom steel pilothouse cruiser built in Port Townsend by John Willey. Heavy-duty welded steel construction, long-range up to 3,000 nm (1,280 gallons fuel / 450 gallons water), and a simple, proven single-engine setup make her an ideal Pacific Northwest passagemaker.

Practical cruising salon with lounge seating and an entertainment area aft plus a dedicated office/workstation. Designed for comfortable extended time aboard.

Galley to port with Force 10 propane range/oven, Sea Freeze refrigeration, separate freezer, microwave, and generous storage for cruising provisions.

Forward stateroom configured with twin bunks, storage, and overhead hatch for light/ventilation (and emergency egress).

Wide side decks and large foredeck. Hydraulic windlass and substantial ground tackle. Dinghy davit and cruising-ready deck hardware. Steel construction with welded deck-to-hull joint.
