Exceptional is the best Description when a boat is in Excellent Condition, well equipped, super clean with a very functional layout with low hours on a pair of Cummins Diesels. (Under 400 hours-barely broken in) You will be hard-pressed to find anything this nice with near new engines in the suggested price range. If you have been shopping, then you know where this one stands.
Lien Hwa is a Well Built Multi-Functional Luxury Yacht. The inclusion of a Cockpit Deck at Water Level provides a useful platform for fishing, diving or simply the safe and convenient movement to and from the vessel on the boat tender. There are many boats with similar aft cabins and sundecks but without the cockpit, you are missing a very important design component. As you shop, keep this in mind. It not only makes for better overall use but it will add value in terms of re-sale.
Cummins 330 (6BTA5.9-M2) is the Most Updated Engines found in the 47' Lien Hwa. This engine has a good performance history and was preceded by 3208 Caterpillar Diesels...both are very dependabel and good builder choices. Other engines like the Lehman 120 HP's are specially ordered. While these classic trawler engines are not able to provide the optional speeds of the Cummins or the Caterpillars, they provide frugal fuel consumption at a crusing speed of about 8 knots. The Cummins and Caterpillar versions are capable of speeds in ther range of 16-18 knots cruising, but still capable of more economical fuel consumption in the 8-10 knot range. Having the option for or the "need for speed" is something to consider when sorting out your boat options. We think having the option makes the best sense for local or long range cruising.
The Photo Essay Explains the Layout which provides a lot of square footage when you add up the sundeck, flying bridge, cockpit , salon, galley, master and guest staterooms. The flexibility as well as the seperation of the staterooms (forward and aft), each with their own heads is ideal for guest and owner privacy...something lacking in sedans, convertibles and sportfishing vessel where the sleeping and bathroom quarters are all pushed into the bow.
All the Equipment, Electronics and Machinery you would expect on a well-designed and outfitted vessel...from Engines to Tender Davit System to Generator to Marine heating & Air Conditioning to Inverter to a Full Electronics Spectrum to your Entertainment Components. It's all very lightly used and there's nothing to do but step on board and go. (You can't say that with many boats that have issues ranging from cosmetic to mechanical that include after-market projects and expenses. That's not what fun is all about...right?)
