PRELUDE

GRACE’S owner is only the third owner of this custom built northwest (Tacoma WA) built yacht.

Her first owner brought her to Spencer Rybovich in 2002 where the interior layout was reconfigured and most of the joinery replaced.

In 2005 he replaced the original 4 cycle Detroits with 1550HP CAT C-30’s and added two new Northern Lights generators. A hull extension of 9’ allowed for a new aft crew cabin and a larger aft deck and FB. Reportedly this refit was 4 million dollars.

Her second owner reconfigured the galley, added the Pipewelders FRP hardtop, Garmin electronics, etc.

The third and current owner has continued with upgrades and improvements to make GRACE an outstanding offering at a realistic price.

She is ready to cruise now!
