Apparently we do! 😂

After 10 years living aboard C-Shel II and cruising Florida and the Bahamas, we had something nice to say about almost every space onboard.

Full walkthrough is on YouTube, and yes, C-Shel II is officially for sale.

After 10 years of living aboard and cruising C-Shel II through Florida, the Bahamas, and beyond, we are finally giving you a full walkthrough of our 1991 Tollycraft 44 Cockpit Motor Yacht.

C-Shel II is a two-stateroom, two-head liveaboard cruiser with an aft deck, cockpit, flybridge, wide side decks, solar, lithium batteries, inverter, water maker, dinghy, and twin Caterpillar 3208TA diesel engines.

She has been set up for real cruising, especially for Florida and the Bahamas, with 1,200 watts of solar, roughly 920Ah of lithium battery capacity, a 40 GPH Sea Water Pro water maker, an Onan 8kW generator, a 2022 Highfield CL340 GT dinghy with a 20HP Tohatsu, and extensive maintenance records from our ownership.

This is not a new boat, and we are honest in the video about that. She is a 1991 cruising boat with normal boat projects, she has been loved, upgraded, used, documented, and prepared for the kind of cruising we have done for the last decade.

C-Shel II is currently for sale. We are now back in the Stuart, Florida area, where she is easier for serious buyers to view.

The lines were slipped, the light was golden, and more new friends pointed the bow toward the blue.

Staying longer term in one place like Grand Bahama makes you realize it isn’t only about the place. It’s about the people who make the stay meaningful.

This is part of why we built the C-Shel Yacht Management System. Boats are more than systems to maintain. They are the platform for the friendships, passages, and memories that make the whole dream worth protecting. (Link in the comments)

Fair winds, friends. Until next time.
