From 2006 when purchased by her current owner;
A major interior refit was just completed by Nautic & Co. at LMC in Ft. Lauderdale. New stainless steel water tanks and new sole in the main salon. This beautiful vessel does not show her age. ‘Far Niente’ had an extensive refit in 1999 at Bennett Brothers in Wilmington North Carolina. Documented expenses for the refit exceeded $375,000. It includes new mast and boom, new Doyle sails, new chainplates, new tierods, new fiberglass nonskid decks, new windlass, new deck hatches, new hull ports, new galley stove, new Groco electric heads, new Lewmar electric halyard winch, new Awlgrip hull paint, new mainsheet traveler, new genoa lead tracks and blocks, new autopilot, new radar, new electrical panels, new refrigeration, etc. This refit was so extensive that a buyer should consider this vessel to be comparable to one built in 1999.
