Candescent: 1988 grp Vindex 470- mint condition

Description

These Jim Young designed (to survey) 47ft launches were the premium large NZ production powerboats for many years, and they have stood the test of time very well. Candescent has had a series of caring owners; she presents in impeccable condition, and is being regularly used and maintained.

Well known for stable and forgiving handling if caught out in unsavoury conditions, her spacious and well-equipped interior is ideal for extended time aboard.

Candescent has been progressively improved during her current ownership, including repainting and window replacements.

Features include: twin 320hp Cummins engines (3,400 hours) with shaft drives (replacement turbos and PSS seals in 2024); Simrad navionics suite (upgraded 2019); Zipwake auto S-series trim tabs; Salt-Away engine flush system; bow thruster; full function flybridge helm; oversized rocna anchor; diesel ducted cabin heater; spacious galley with microwave and plenty of bench space; generous house bathroom with shower booth and lectrasan head; three cabin layout with large queen master and two twin bunkrooms.

Her extra-width 15m Nelson Marina berth on A Dock (normally with a very long waiting list) is transferable to her next lucky owner.
