Real Ships Islander 61

Presenting INDIGO! The Yacht that sips fuel like a trawler with her ultra-dependable, fuel-stingy 250 hp Caterpillar diesels and lives like a much larger, spacious and luxurious motor Yacht with her extra-wide 20-foot-plus beam!

This unique and special Vessel boasts A long list of recent upgrades and newer equipment. As of the end of June, the Starboard engine is being completely re-built with a new short block, so the buyer of this great vessel will be getting new or newer engines and generator! INDIGO is now an even more fantastic deal!

She has a number of features that you usually only find on larger vessels, including prop protection, serious ground tackle capability, a true king size bed in the master, a Galley that rivals that of many luxury homes, and so much more!
