SELLER DESCRIPTION

CAVU is the Chadeleur & Barrier Island Cruisers Dream!! CAVU was Specifically built by master boat bulder Bill Holland for Chandeleur style fishing and cruising. Low hours on the rebuilt Yanmar generator and the perfectly running Detroit 8-71 will have you on the fish at a reliable and fuel efficient 9 knots.

Accomodations:
You will find a teak swim platform at the transom, with the grill and fish cleaning station conveniently located on the aft deck. A fixed ladder takes you to the roof of the vessel, where the skiffs are stored. Davit arms are conveniently placed for lowering skiffs as you launch into a day of trout and red fishing. Enter the salon through double doors on the aft bulkhead. Spacious over/under bunks are located to port and starboard, and a privacy curtain separates the bunks from the main salon. The head with sink and shower are directly forward to port, followed by two large bench seats around the table, which folds up for extra space, or to seat more guests. The galley is located to starboard, and is complete with microwave, sink, two electric burners, storage throughout, and ample counter space for meal preparation. The helm is located centerline, and three large windows provide excellent visibility. There is a second helm chair to starboard and then down a set of steps to the lower deck. Four bunks are placed throughout the forward cabin, with a head and shower with sink to starboard of the steps. The master stateroom is all the way starboard, with queen sized bed and door facing forward. The forward cabin also houses two top opening freezers, storage, and effectively uses the V configuration to maximize sleeping accommodations. CAVU sleeps 10 people in 9 berths!
