This boat will be the new home of a retired pilot based in Sitka, Alaska.
The vessel was launched on 31st October 2006 and the boat will be transported as cargo to Mexico from New Zealand in January 2007.
Special features include reinforcing the roof in such a way as to allow the owner to land an R22 Helicopter on it and it will also carry the owners' car.
New Zealand was chosen for the construction of this fourteenth Florida Bay Coaster to fulfill the owners' requirement of a high quality engineering/systems and Super Yacht paint finish.
