2003 Stardust Cruisers 71x16 houseboat on a lake under a partly cloudy sky.

Description

This 2003 Stardust Cruisers 71’ x 16’ houseboat offers an overall length of approximately 74’ and is located at Kentucky Dam Marina on the Tennessee River/Kentucky Lake navigable waterway. The current slip may convey with marina approval, making this an outstanding turnkey opportunity for its next owner.

Powered by twin Mercury 4.3 MPI gasoline engines with just 166 hours, this Stardust has seen exceptionally light use. A Westerbeke 15kW generator with only 242 hours provides reliable onboard power. Both the engines and generator received a complete service in November 2025, including fresh oil, filters, impellers, and spark plugs. Additional mechanical updates include new gimbal bearings and bellows in 2023, a new HVAC unit installed in 2025, and a new windlass (with wireless remote) installed in July 2025.

The spacious interior comfortably accommodates family and guests with three private bedrooms plus a queen-size hide-a-bed sofa in the salon. The galley is equipped with a full-size refrigerator/freezer, full-size oven, dishwasher, and microwave, making extended stays aboard easy and comfortable. A stacked washer and dryer adds the convenience of home while cruising or living aboard. A full enclosure for the forward deck extends your boating season.

Docking is made easier with a hydraulic bow thruster, while the upper deck features a davit crane. A Bilge Safe heater provides additional protection during colder months.

Whether you’re looking for a full-time waterfront residence, a weekend retreat, or a comfortable cruiser for exploring America’s inland waterways, this exceptionally low-hour Stardust offers an outstanding combination of space, equipment, and mechanical updates.
