Hull 453, has a blue bottom and white cabin top, interior made of Teak wood, there is also a stainless frame for a dodger and Bimini. My boat is registered in Arizona where there are no sales taxes on pre-owned boats and can be registered in any state the buyer chooses. The cockpit has an Edison Binnical, Ritchie Compass, Stainless Steering Wheel, a B&G Vulcan 9 Electronic GPS Chart Plotter, providing boat position, direction, wind direction, depth, ground speed, tides, Man Over Board or Distress system, etc, a teak foldable table, under a Blue helm cover.

Additional Storage is under the bench seats, storage lockers are behind and above, and a starboard hanging locker is forward.

Sun covers and bug screens for forward hatch, center hatch, and main hatch, with easy ingress and egress. Boat is set up for long distance sailing with Two 10 gallon propane tanks, 3 AGM batteries and solar panels. I was preparing the boat to take it to Central and South American countries who have 12V but not 120V 60 Hz electrical; they are normally 220V and 50 Hz. My boat is set up so a 12V to120V inverter can be installed and connected to a battery in order to provide power to all on board outlets for small 120V appliances. Do not plug it in when the shore power cord is connected to a generator or to shore power! Most electronic equipment like computers and phones are designed to be used world wide on 12V, 120V or 220V power systems. There is a lot of safety equipment including: Flairs, B&G distress capability, a large Horseshoe throwable Device-Type IV P.F.D., a Life Sling Overboard Rescue System. six or more Type IV throwable flotation cushions, SOSpenders for adults over 90 lbs, four Life Vests, West Marine 70' rescue throw rope, 2 Foul Weather Gauchos, 2 harnesses with lanyards, a Bosun's chair, Heavy duty docking lines, plenty of extra Lines and Ropes. Blackout covers for the portlights, which are handy in hot climates. Plenty of 12V lighting. The lamp over Navstation can be switched to a white or red lamp for night use. Two great reasons to have a Universal M40 motor are parts can be found anywhere around the world and it has a Hurth transmission Model HBW-100. The transmission is designed to permit reversing at full engine speed, which should only be used in an Emergency. Do not leave gear in forward when sailing, Gear must be in neutral for free wheeling or shifted into reverse to lock propeller while sailing. There are manuals and documents regarding most of the equipment on the boat.
