Swiftcraft V3000 Sapphire, Length 31ft/9.40m, repowered, rewired and repainted. On an aluminum triaxle trailer with the option of an Isuzu FTS 750 4X4 tow truck.
The Swiftcraft V3000 Saphire was built of heavy duty fibreglass materials. The construction being equal to Lloyds specifications for fibreglass construction and passed surveys to perform commercial work for many Australian Authorities.
In 2021 the entire vessel has repainted. The underwater area was taken back to gelcoat and primed with a 2 pack epoxy. The underwater area has no blisters or damage present. The remainder of the vessel was sanded back and painted with International Perfection and a non-slip finish applied to the deck. Over the past 6 years the vessel has been stored in a shed when not in use.
This particular vessel was constructed with the extension platform for the "Equiflow Drive System" and has been repowered with a 315 Hp Yanmar 6LPA-STP2 marine diesel with a ZF63A marine gearbox and currently has 703 hrs on it. The advantage being a low maintenance shaft drive vessel with a draft of 0.6m that can be trailered. The propeller is an 18" x 14.3" 4 blade Mikado giving the vessel a top speed of 20Kts. A rope cutter is fitted forward of the propeller. There are 2 stainless steel fuel tanks with a total capacity of 400L. These tanks have been cleaned internally.
The cockpit is large and open with a flat floor, 2020mm head room and fully screened with mesh that can be rolled up or removed when not required. The original plywood cockpit floor was removed in 2021 and a composite floor installed with new marine carpet. The engine is accessed through two large hatches. There is a transom gate that opens out onto the swim platform which has also been replaced with composite. The swim platform has a cold shower. The steering gear is located in this platform and easily accessed through a large hatch opening. There is a moulded fibreglass helmsman's console with Raymarine A70d multifunction chartplotter and new Raymarine Hydraulic autopilot. The cockpit is covered with a moulded fibreglass hard top with 500W of regulated solar panels. There are sliding glass windows on the sides and 3-piece windscreen with adjustable centre vent. The double seat can be folded down or removed by 2 quick release pins if more space is required.
Entering down the steps into the boat there is an L shape galley to port with a single sink and 2 burner gas cook top. Below this there is space for an engle fridge. The lounge has a headroom of 1920mm and can be converted to two full length berths. The port side also has the means of being converted to bunk beds while the starboard can be converted to a dinette. The forecabin is large enough to sleep 2 adults. There is a large amount of storage throughout this area. This entire area is surrounded by tinted marine safety glass sliding windows with a central opening window giving access to the foredeck and supplying through ventilation.
The walk in head is opposite the galley and completely self-contained. It has a new TMC toilet, vanity and a hot/cold shower supplied by a pressure pump with a 60L water supply. There is also an instantaneous gas hot water system mounted in the cockpit that can be easily removed via a couple of quick connect fittings should it not be required.
The foredeck has a SAV anchor winch with 10m x 10mm galvanised chain and 30m of 19mm rode. The anchor is a fortress FX16 aluminium danforth style anchor. There is a raise/lower electric hand control for ease of operation when anchoring.
The vessel was rewired with tinned marine cable in 2021. There are 2 new starting batteries for the engine and a 135Ahr house battery.
The vessel is fitted with all the safety equipment and navigation lights required.
