I bought the "RNR" in 2001 and she had seen better days.The previous owners had actually glued a parque floor over the engine hatches. That was a head scratcher.
By the time I sold her in 2010, she had gone through a stem to stern rejuventation and had been repowered with new engines and upgraded generator. I could not have been more pleased with how she turned out. I loved this boat but she was a little small for a summer home

... aft deck. I built this bench and made those cusions myself!! The monograming was done by someone else
..her helm. My Dad, my Uncle Pat and I added the overhead console so that we could install instruments up and out of the way.
.. her galley. I am known for a well stocked bar on my boats and the RNR was no exception.
.. her lower salon. This was a sofa that doubled as a bunk bed. The back would raise up and straps would latch to hooks on the ceiling. Pretty slick. The table would rise up to convert form a coffee table to a dining table. Also, pretty slick
.. the front cabin, my pride and joy. This cabin was mint green and peach when I bought the boat. From the moment I walked into this boat, I knew how I wanted this cabin to look and this is it. And let me tell you, fire engine red velvet is not easy to find!!
