Concrete Idea

Trawlers Concrete Idea

“Concrete Idea” has been well maintained by the current owner, with a recently repainted deck, upgraded flooring on the soles of the master and guest cabin, newer AC units in the salon and master Stateroom, and all new (2024) house batteries. Built for long range ocean cruising as well as coastal, her hull and decks are solid fiberglass. Her first owners were from Virginia, and after they sold her the second owners kept her on the Great Lakes for 30 years. During that time, she only spent 3 to 4 months a year cruising, all in freshwater, and was stored safely for the winter months in climate controlled indoor storage. She was purchased by the current owners in 2013 and has spent the years cruising the East Coast and the Bahamas. She is ready to take off today,and won’t last long!
