"Betsy" represents a departure from standard Huckins designs. Her original owner envisioned an innovative pilothouse layout with a wide-open expansive interior, coupled with Huckins construction and performance. Pilothouse all at main deck level, main cabin/salon and galley is aft of pilothouse at cockpit level. Light and bright, large deckhouse windows. Covered cockpit is on the same level as the salon. Two staterooms each with their own head forward. Repowered in 2002; Cummins 6CTA8.3-M 450 HP.
Hull construction is hand laid and molded fiberglass with Airex coring. Cruise equipped, good electronics and bow thruster. The vessel is in Above Average Condition for age and use. Hull cosmetics are in very good condition with new coatings applied. This Huckins 50 Pilothouse has had custom work completed and was refit with Cummins Diamond Series Motors in 2002.
Betsy has had many improvements and she shows in wonderful condition. This yacht should be at the top of your viewing list!
