Step aboard the remarkable Komuta, a beautifully preserved and rebuilt timber vessel with a storied past. Originally designed by a naval architect and professionally constructed, Komuta served for many years as a trusted commercial ferry navigating Port Phillip Bay. Now transformed into a unique recreational vessel, she offers the perfect blend of historical significance and modern functionality for extended cruising, pleasure fishing, or leisurely getaways.

A Testament to Maritime Craftsmanship
This double-ended hull vessel boasts classic lines, a white hull, and a distinctive dual-level cabin. The open timber bulwarks and flowing sheer give Komuta her timeless appeal, while large, laminated glass picture windows flood the cabin saloon with natural light, ensuring panoramic views and a bright, airy interior.

The vessel's wheelhouse features a striking four-window front and large side windows, complete with sliding stainless steel-framed doors for easy access. A traditional timber mast atop the wheelhouse enhances her character, while the canoe stern and semi-open bulwarks aft add a touch of elegance rarely found in modern vessels.

Comfortable Accommodation for Extended Voyages
Below decks, Komuta offers ample sleeping space with three separate cabins featuring six single bunks and one double berth. The saloon, equipped with cozy settees, flows into a central galley complete with bench seating, providing comfort for entertaining or relaxing after a day on the water. Timber paneling throughout the interior enhances the vessel's warm and inviting ambiance.

Reliable Engineering & Practical Design
Powered by a six-cylinder inline Gardner diesel engine, Komuta ensures dependable propulsion for extended journeys. The raised forward deck, easily accessible engine room, and thoughtfully laid-out systems--including auxiliary diesel, battery storage, and domestic pumps--underscore her practicality.

Legacy Meets Opportunity
Having already ventured on extended cruises, including voyages to Tasmania, Komuta is ready for her next chapter with an owner who appreciates her historical significance and craftsmanship. Whether you seek a unique pleasure cruiser, a base for fishing adventures, or a piece of maritime history, Komuta promises an unmatched experience.

Don't miss the chance to own this extraordinary vessel--Komuta is not just a boat; she's a story waiting to continue.
