Dawn 48 - Ketch

VIVAMUS is a beautiful, 48' Frers Dawn Centercockpit Ketch. Fast! A wonderful and sought after design. Designed by German Frers and manufactured by Kong & Halvorsen in 1985. There have been very few available on the market - she is hull # 7 of fifteen ever made! Her almost new bow thruster makes her easily maneuverable. This Dawn 48 has two staterooms - one is a walk thru aft cabin. Two heads, a wrap around galley and a large salon with three berths available. She maintains a teak interior and teak & holly sole. She's fast and very comfortable! Great Galley. A good inventory of sails (professionally serviced each year), set up with Harken roller furling systems. This Frers 48 is a delight to cruise! She does need a new deck (this teak, screwed down deck has leaked for a while) and main bulkhead needs to be replaced as a result of the leaks. She has a Faircloth Cover and Frame. This project boat is priced for a quick sale.
