1987 Hi-Star Sundeck

Poulsbo, Washington

$149,000

"Blue Dog" is a remarkably spacious two stateroom, two head flybridge motor yacht with a wonderful enclosed and heated sun deck.  A perfect platform for living aboard and extended cruising, pride of ownership is evident throughout thanks to her two careful owners from new. 

Built under the personal supervision of the original owner, a Queen City Yacht Club member, "Blue Dog" has spent most of her life in freshwater and has been only lightly cruised in local waters by her current owner of five years.

The Hi-Star Marine Company of Kaohsiung, Taiwan is somewhat unique in its exacting level of quality control, design and final testing, with each hull being tank tested upon completion at the climate-controlled factory. 

Powered by twin Caterpillar 3208-T diesel engines known for their reliability and longevity with just 2,200 original hours "Blue Dog" can cruise all day at 15-18 knots at around 2300 RPM.  Professionally maintained and benefiting from all scheduled maintenance, these engines should provide trouble free service for many more years to come.

VESSEL PARTICULARS:

CONSTRUCTION:

The hull from chine to keel is solid fiberglass with Airex foam used in the topsides and balsa core throughout the deck and superstructure. The efficiently driven hull produces a relatively low quarter wake and has a comfortable motion underway.

ACCOMMODATION:

The wonderfully spacious interior creates several separate living spaces starting with the enclosed flybridge, a fully enclosed and heated sundeck with dining table and chairs, and a huge main salon flooded with natural light.  Going forward from the main salon and down three steps is the galley to port and a dinette that can comfortably seat up to six to starboard. Continuing forward is the VIP guest suite with a centerline berth and an ensuite head.

Going aft from the main salon down three steps is the full width owner's stateroom comprising a centerline berth flanked with extensive built-in cabinetry, and an ensuite head with separate shower stall.

Extensive built-in cabinetry, hand burnished wood accents, louvered cupboard doors and fine finish details throughout enhance the sense of a luxurious and comfortable living space that can comfortably accommodate a family of four or two couples with plenty of room to spread out and enjoy extended time afloat and underway.
