Description
MISTY GIRL
A started conversion/restoration for a live aboard lifestyle and you be looking for a character boat – that special look of a commercial fishing boat – a long liner – with all the deck gear –but down below the interior purposely arranged and finished for living on board – full time.
Explore the eastern seaboard – The Bahamas – Caribbean – go around the world – hum! Or maybe just tie up to a downtown wharf and live on board – like a home – a two bedroom apartment with waterfront – how kewl is that!
A work project for sure! Built in 86 and retired in 05. The outside is authentic – the look of a Nova Scotia fishing boat –but inside she be purposely designed and arranged and built for living – outfitted and finished to your “needs and wants”
This is not a budget project – you will need money $$ to properly finish and outfit in ship fashion. You can do it yourself for half the cost or hire out.
Misty Girl has a full displacement hull – sweet design - easy to push through the water for the best fuel economy. Composite core construction - cold molded – encapsulated wood epoxy - designed by Spencer Lincoln and built to commercial standards by Covey Island Boatworks of Lunenburg. They built the Bluenose!
Equipped with paravane roll stabilizers with fish (some call these birds) – for roll stability when under way and “flopper stopper” when anchored - for some learning on this subject Google – Nordhavn Passive Stabilizer - for historical reading - Google - Robert Beebe Passagemaker.
Equipped with a commercial rated marine diesel – large bronze propeller - stainless steel shaft and rudder – a lot has been done – complete refurbishment of the hull – keel to gunwales – foredeck and wheelhouse, roof and side deck. The aft cabin is roughed in with walk around side and stern deck. The forward cabin is original with three bunks, table and small counter with sink.
Misty Girl is on the hard in Nova Scotia. If you are interested to learn more, call 902-875-1276 or email charlie@novatrawler.com
