1984 Profile 462

this vessel invites you to really cruise the world. start with the unique features: dutch-built of steel construction, she's more ship than boat. long stepped profile with a semi-circular aft settee, she intimates sociability and relaxation while at anchor. what else does she have to offer? a lot. the interior is roomy, comfortable and full of lovely joinery and craftsmanship. windows galore, with sliding skylights too, open the interior to the natural world. ship's systems are in most cases commercial grade, including hydraulic bow thruster, hydraulic get-home drive, 145# anchor, and 400' of3/8"chain. movement around the exterior is easy on wide side decks. and the teak planking (over steel decks) is classic and functional. steel construction is worth comment--while rarer in the u.s. than in europe, it has the benefits of being extremely tough and of greater safety from fire. good care assures a very long life for steel boats and this one has seen good care including awlgrip painting of hull in 2012 and superstructure in 2017. this was expensive work, but it prepares the boat for more years of easy and enjoyable use. walk around the boat -- the finish is beautiful. she's termed a long range trawler for a reason--1800 nm or more 7.8 knots. and 500 gallons of water capacity. a unique opportunity for the pedigreed trawler crafted in the old world! temporary moorage is available at lake union in seattle for up to 90days --to enable an easy transition to your permanent moorage. these boat details are subject to contract. note: offers on the asking price may be considered. register with boatshed to see 112 extra photos of this lowland 471 long range trawler . this lowland 471 long range trawler has been personally photographed and viewed by roger drill of boatshed seattle.
