Description: Millkraft Classic Timber Cruiser
Regrettable sale due to change in circumstances.
Are you ready to live the dream? Here's your opportunity to own this iconic gorgeous cruiser, and live the good life, perfect for comfortable live aboard, or extensive family cruising.
'Mercedes' was built in 1973 by Millkraft at Bulimba and was put to work as a Gulf trawler. She was completely converted to a twin level comfortable live aboard family cruiser in 2003. No expense was spared in creating the ultimate luxurious interior.
She has been a comfortable, self sufficient home for the last 8+ years, and has been extensively cruised up and down the Queensland coast, and is ready to go again.
She has been lovingly and expertly maintained by the owner, a Lloyd's Ships trained boat builder to his exacting standards. She was slipped in February 2022 at GCCM for her regular out of water maintenance.
Mercedes is an extremely strong, safe, reliable and easily operated boat, and with some timber deck work to be completed (tools and materials included) she would be ready to turn heads wherever she went.
