1983 Marine Management 48 — Extensively Refitted Research Vessel Ready for Cruising
This 48-footer underwent a comprehensive refit in 2021 as one of our research vessels. She had to be available, running, and reliable at all times, so our captain was meticulous about keeping every working system updated. We're retiring her from research duty, and she's priced for a quick sale — we'll consider reasonable offers.

- Twin Cummins QSB 6.7 engines replaced — port replaced January 2023, starboard December 2021, so both powerplants are essentially fresh.
