1988 Conquest 53

Meticulously refurbished, this stunning expedition vessel started life as a Conquest commercial fishing boat until it benefited from a substantial conversion by it's current owner. With extended cruises along the WA coast in mind, the large deck space received a full length aluminium awning designed to carry a substantial tender with a 1000kg deck crane and plenty of storage space. The Pilot House was also crafted and provides additional accommodation with a fold-out double bed and its own bathroom. The vision from this station is excellent ensuring safe passage whilst exploring remote coastal destinations and the full length keel provides protection from any obstructions. The main deck is big enough to entertain the entire team or lounge around in comfort in your favourite bay with your choice of outdoor furniture along with a bathroom of domestic proportions and a large storage area and workshop located under the flybridge staircase. The original pot winch is still operational and the hydraulic system also powers the bow thruster. The tasteful saloon has a generous galley with loads of bench space and refrigeration and the dinette converts to a large double bed when required. The saloon helm station is perfect for the long hauls and allows the skipper to enjoy the comforts of the luxurious interior complete with airconditioning should the Kimberly Region beckon. Below decks there is a forward cabin with four single bunks and the mid-ships cabin has another double bed and two more single bunks. The Caterpillar 3408 can push this substantial vessel along at 18 knots if required but economical cruising is achieved at 14-15 knots ensuring a comfortable voyage in unkind seas. Constructed by SeaCrome Marine in WA, the Conquest hulls are renowned for their strength and sea keeping ability's so you couldn't ask for a better boat to convert to a private expedition vessel.
