This late model Krogen 44AE CARMELLA is exceptional.  It is ready for the buyer who not only desires a like-new 44AE, but who wants a yacht with every extra added detail after purchase in preparation for long-distance adventures. Truly a functional, proper, turn-key ready-to-cruise bluewater trawler. Extensively equipped and with a welcoming interior. CARMELLA provides both form AND function. 

CARMELLA's engine room is as squared away as any you will find.  Special consideration was made in power usage and consumption.  In addition to the large alternator, a second inverter was added, not only for optimal charging but also for redundancy. This addition permits simultaneous use of components that draw heavy power (e.g., microwave, toaster oven, etc.) or either inverter can supply the entire 120v panel -a small, but important detail for extended cruising. CARMELLA also features an upgraded hot water heater, 700 watts of solar panels for reduced generator use - and an upgraded bilge pump in the lazarette to ensure a completely dry compartment suitable for additional storage.  

She has been prepared to take you safely and comfortably regardless of your destination – and the separate hydronic heating system in conjunction with reverse cycle air conditioning further enhances your enjoyment no mater what the latitude.   Considerable preparations were made for keeping you and CARMELLA safe in all conditions, with a complete supply of lifesaving equipment already installed and at the ready.  The addition of a handheld Yacht Controller makes single-handed docking a breeze.  An impeccable maintenance log will help insure a seamless handover to the new owner.

As a full displacement Krogen 44AE, CARMELLA happily cruises at 7+ kts with a range of approximately 2500 nm.  You will not be disappointed in this exemplary Krogen 44AE.  To replace and build new over $1.750m and a two year build time.
