Comments

YASSOU has been professionally maintained since new by experienced crew and factory engine technicians.  The CAT engines have always had the best of regular maintenance, preventative maintenance and upgrades.  All interior spaces and the engine room are very clean and like new.  The exterior is unique with teak on the side decks, trunk top and cockpit.  All being installed new in 2006.  The exterior varnish and paint finishes are in excellent condition. YASSOU has recently spent most of her time in the northeast between the Cape and mid coast Maine.  She is currently in Florida stored undercover.  It can be easily seen on short notice. This is a great boat and a \"must see\" to appreciate.
