Opportunity knocks for the right buyer!
If you've been searching for a classic trawler-style motor yacht with tremendous upside, this 1972 Uniflite 36 Double Cabin deserves a look. Recently repowered with dependable Twin 1993 Hino EH700-TI 250 HP Diesel Motors showing less than 600 hours, this classic Northwest-built yacht offers an incredible foundation for someone who enjoys projects and wants equity instead of paying top dollar for a fully restored boat.
