40' Island Gypsy 1988

Gadabout is a two owner vessel that aims to please with economical and very functional layouts. It has been well maintained with a major refit in 2008 including a newly painted hull, and professionally installed all new injectors on the reliable Ford Lehman twin diesels in 2019. Gadabout includes many new systems to enhance its reliability and would be ideal for live aboard, simple crusing, or the Great Loop. Mechanical maintenance is up to date.

There are three comfortable staterooms with two heads that enhance its livability for multiple couples and it has a beautiful wooden interior. A practical and social layout, especially on the flybridge with the helm aft allows the Captain to join in the fun. A great boat to cruise the Bay or take down the ICW for some serious adventure!

-New hull paint to waterline
