  • New Frigiboat 12V refrigerator
  • Garmin GPS Chartplotter
  • New running rod rigging
  • Solid decks with freshly painted nonskid
  • No blisters
  • New bottom job 2017
  • 8 coats of Awlgrip AllSpar Varnish on all exterior woodwork
  • Screens for all opening ports and the companionway
  • Standing rigging professionally inspected and tuned
  • Diesel Jerry cans, life preservers, fenders and lines included
  • CQR anchor with 110 feet of chain plus 140 feet of rode
  • Bruce anchor with chain and rode
  • Stern anchor
  • New Bimini top

Accommodations

The Shannon 28 is sought after for good reason. This little ship is just as comfortable as she is seaworthy. Upon stepping down through the companionway, you are met with a u-shaped galled to starboard and a full enclosed (very large for a boat this size) head and shower to port.

The centerline table is fitted around the keel-stepped mast, and can fold out to seat 6 or be stowed for easy passage through the cabin. Sea berths/settees line either side, with ample storage behind and beneath each.

The v-berth is fully private and is large enough for two to sleep comfortably. All cushions are in great shape, and the joinery and interior woodwork is stunning.

This is the "passagemaker" layout (Shannon built three different layout options).

She's ready to sail and ready to be lived aboard! With central air and a large house battery bank (charged by solar), you'll be living in luxury about this pocket cruiser whether at the dock or at sea!
