Features

Accomodation

Designed for the cruising couple and outfitted for guests, the 37 Sedan has plenty of space for sleeping and living. Stepping aboard, the huge cockpit is an inviting place to sit and enjoy your surroundings and is perfect for the passionate fisherman.

There is a stainless steel arch reaching over the stern that allows for a full coverage sun canopy over the cockpit so you can enjoy the long summer days in comfort. The cockpit is huge and big enough to handle a small group of friends and family.

Entering into the salon from the cockpit is a simple step into a wide sitting area with a pull-out couch to the starboard side and comfortable seats with storage below to port. Forward is a bar above the galley with two comfortable stools with integrated storage.

The lower helm station is to starboard with a comfortable seat and all the navigation and instruments visible and close at hand.

From the salon, you step down into the full galley to port and a large head with sink, storage, and separate shower stall to starboard.

The galley has lots of storage, a large double stainless steel sink, and a Force 10, 3-burner stove with oven.

Forward there is a large comfortable cabin with a hanging locker and storage.

The command bridge has a center captain’s chair with all controls at hand. There are also dual forward and rear-facing seats for guests. The large bimini has a detachable windshield and will provide you with protection from the elements.

Overall this is a fantastic boat made for cruising the Pacific Northwest and it has the space you need to keep you comfortable.

Mechanical

Known as one of the toughest gas engines ever made, the noble ‘four-fifty-four’ has been a staple in the marine industry for decades. Some consider it to be the best inboard engine ever made because of its simplicity, torque, and relative ease of maintenance. As long as you keep them well-maintained they simply do not quit.

This pair fires up right away and purrs like they should Fresh out of servicing in June and a compression test was completed in early August 2024 and all cylinders are within tolerance.
