Ever boat has a story and TOP PRIORTY is no different. Until Summer of 2018 she lived for 57 years in a covered, heated boat house in Detroit, Michigan cared for by her one and only owner. The owner passed away and the boat was acquired by her new owner March 2018. The new owner has taken great care to keep her as original as possible all the while upgrading her systems. The boat made the long journey from Detroit to Jacksonville, FL (a trip of a life time) safely to her new home undercover on the Ortega River at Lamb's Yacht Center. We invite serious interest to contact us for more details and showing.
