Overview
This 53' Express was converted from a Flybridge to an Express starting in 2000 and was completed in late 2003. The boat was stripped down to bare Hull (new Decks, new engines, new wiring and new interior). Extra layers of glass were added to bottom chines and stringers. The bulkheads were also reinforced.
In 2008 she had a major refit with awlgrip paint, sparkling varnish, Pipe Welders Tower with hardtop and buggy top with built-in LED lighting and teaser reels.
In 2015 the majority of electronics were replaced. The engines and generator were rebuilt and ZF transmissions and shafts were installed. All the water pumps, bilge pumps and floats were replaced as well.
