1994 – Trader 54 Sundeck with Twin V8 Caterpillar engines

The condition of this boat needs to be seen to be appreciated, it is simply stunning

This is a very special Trader 54 Sundeck.

Her build was overseen by a Marine Surveyor when she was first commissioned and this attention to detail has more than continued into her current ownership.
She is a 1994 boat but I have not seen a Trader or any 1994 boat in such an amazing condition. It is just stunning.

The boat has undergone an extensive no-expense-spared refit during its current ownership. She is breath-taking when you get on board, the condition of the teak, the leather upholstery, and the woodwork has to be seen to be appreciated. The hull is highly polished and the boat just gleams.
Mechanically she is excellent and is specced for long-distance cruising and would also make the most perfect live-aboard.
