Broker remarks

Coveted Grand Alaskan 64s seldom come to market or remain available for long, making WANDERER a rare opportunity. Thoughtfully updated and fully current on all mechanical services, she is turnkey and ready to cruise this summer. Offered by an owner choosing to spend more time ashore, she presents in very nice shape and will not disappoint upon inspection.

WANDERER has proven herself across various owners, having cruised the US West Coast and Alaska, ventured to South America, transited the Panama Canal, explored the entire Caribbean and the Bahamas, and ranged along the US East Coast, the Chesapeake, and the Great Lakes via the Hudson River and Champlain Canal. Under current ownership she has again covered the East Coast, along with the Florida Gulf Coast. True to her name, this vessel has indeed been a wanderer.
