Six (6) gallon hot water heater serves galley and enclosed head with sink and shower. Updated marine toilet and (in-line) macerator, y-valve, holding tank and associated plumbing. 220 gallon fuel capacity - cruises at 3900 RPMs / about 27 knots at about 17 GPH (very fuel efficient, and great range) - top speed about 40 knots.

Two recent surveys (one for previous owner, one for me when I bought the boat) and complete engine diagnostic inspections (with compression and leak-down tests) performed. I will share all of the above, along with my ongoing punchlist / maintenance / repair projects list, for those seriously considering purchase.
SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY. I may accept a cash deposit (at Bayport Credit Union in Hayes, VA) with a signed offer to purchase, but ONLY after seeing the boat. If no financing is involved, the balance of the sales price is payable by Cashier's Check ONLY, at a bank of the buyer's choosing (within 50 miles) with both buyer and seller present at the time the check is cut by the teller. If financing is involved, I will accept wire transfer from a lender that I pre-approve (see below suggested financing company).
I've been driving boats longer than cars... I grew up on the water, and this is my third Grady White. This is a GREAT boat, and I am a meticulous boat owner... I am being forced to sell due to health conditions (very sad, but beyond my control). Price listed ($74,900) is FIRM, it is supported by the survey valuation, and it accounts for the fact that every boat has ongoing maintenance and repair needs... (I am very open to share everything I know) - if you want to negotiate the price down, the price is $86,900. I'd be glad to deliver within 50 miles of Hayes, VA - longer distances negotiable for a mileage based fee.
If you're trying to buy without seeing the boat, don't bother inquiring. If you are not located in the US, again, don't bother inquiring. If you're not willing to pay my bottom line price, again, don't bother inquiring. I will provide forms as needed to formally document the offer, purchase, inspection, acceptance, and exchange of funds.
Note that this is a USCG documented vessel, and therefore it is not titled nor registered in the state of Virginia. I'd be glad to link the buyer with the folks at Vann Maritime for USCG documentation services.
FINANCING: I've worked with the folks at Trident Marine Funding to finance boat purchases multiple times... note that most financing companies prefer not to finance boats more than 20 years old, but the folks at Trident specialize in boats like this one. Again, I'd be glad link the buyer with the folks at Trident for financing services.
Contact me through this website and I will provide you with my phone number.
