This is one of five Rybovich Yacht Fisherman to be built. She has been owned by the same individual for over 25 years. Over this time, he has gone through every system and aspect of this vessel and had the Rybovich yard refit every possible detail without regard to cost. She is a remarkable boat and was primarily used for extended Bahamas cruises in the out-islands. She is an excellent sea boat, has great accommodations and a classic style seldom seen these days. Some improvements include:
Gallley
- Jen-Aire stove with oven
- Microwave
- Double SS sink
- Built-in pantry
- Ample drawer and cabinet storage

Refit Details
In 1985/86 the vessel was gutted and rebuilt from stem to stern at Rybovich Boat Works. This refit included every conceivable system on the boat. Everything mechanical was replaced including engines, v-drives, AC, and appliances. The entire interior was replaced with a lavish use of teak paneling and trim and granite countertops. The galley, electronics, tower, cockpit, covering boards, and engine room were all completely redone. She got a new tower, teak transom and exterior cabinetry. She was literally a new boat.
Today she remains in excellent condition having had a refit over the last couple of years.
