1982 Marine Trader Aft Cabin

Madisonville, Louisiana

$146,500

The 44 Marine Trader Tri-Cabin Trawler was so popular that she was built for over twelve years.  Noted for its solid fiberglass seaworthy hull, with all teak interiors, she was a perfect fit for the economical long-range cruising market.   The two-stateroom floorplan with large salon was the preferred option.  She has wide side decks and two salon doors for easy access.  
M/V My Blue Heaven was graced with an exhaustive two years of renovation and refit in Ecuador.  The renovation far excluded the original design, utilizing newer and better materials, the craftmanship is exemplary.  She is basically a 2008 model vessel. 
M/V My Blue Heaven is a clean vessel with a clean engine room.  The present owner is a commercial marine captain and keeps good records.  He takes pride in her and it shows.  She is kept on a freshwater river in a covered slop.  "YES" the Highfield Aluminum Dinghy/RIB is included!
