  • M/V Aqua-Cultured is a 1989 44' DeFever Offshore Cruiser located in St. Petersburg, FL, and is for sale ($179,000). She is for sale by owner, and you can contact me at 727-504-2887 (Call or Text), or e-mail refinedbywater@.gmail.com.
    The DeFever 44 has a displacement hull and is one of the most desired Trawler type vessels in her size class, and is the most popular model in the DeFever lineup. She is stabilized and is powered by the ultra-desirable and dependable Ford Lehman naturally aspirated 135hp diesel engines. You are not going to find a more spacious and well appointed flybridge, sundeck, salon, master stateroom, and engine room. Aqua-Cultured has been constantly upgraded by me, her current owner of 8 years. You can see all of the videos of this boat on my channel which show many of the projects I have completed onboard. She is super clean (most importantly does not smell like an old boat), capable, and truly ready to go. I just spent 4 months in the Florida Keys with her and completed the Florida Loop, and the boat performed wonderfully with no issues. She has updated air-conditioners throughout, new bimini tops, Stidd Helm Chair, rebuilt 12.5 kw Westerbeke Generator, 10' RIB, Active Fin Stabilizers, propshaft line cutters, new underwater lights, TECMA Freshwater Toilets, and a fresh bottom job. If you are looking to Live Aboard, cruise long term, do the Great Loop, or cruise to the Bahamas or Caribbean, M/V Aqua-Cultured will take you there! Reach out to me if you are an interested buyer and I can provide you with more information and schedule an appointment to view her.

    Butch, fantastic tour of your great boat. Better than 99% of the broker videos that I view. Was a bit surprised to see this come up in my feed as I've followed you for a bit and knew how well you cared for her. Never mind the haters. Good luck with your sale. Cheers, from Los Angeles.

    Butch Great tour of Aqua-Cultured and she looks outstanding. I have watched your videos over the years and know you are VERY meticulous on everything onboard. You never take short cuts and do everything in the proper manner ( AC unit, Generator rebuild ) and it really shows as Aqua-Cultured is spic & span clean. I did note the epirb unit mounted topside LOL Don't be bothered by the rude comments as there are trolls everywhere, you will sell the boat and move to your next adventure. Congratulations on getting married and I wish you both happiness.

  • @GregStark381CC
    @GregStark381CC 10 днів тому +1

    For someone to post that the boat is over priced without actually seeing the boat is out of line. If all the boat’s systems are in good working order and if the canvas, teak, paint/gelcoat and interior is in good condition the boat appears to be priced very realistically. I think a more accurate statement from the wannabe’s would be they wish the boat was cheaper because they can not afford a boat in this price range. I am welling to bet that a person that would say something like that is probably one of those dock walking ducks that wastes their time dreaming of finding a boat that does not require any physical or financial effort to maintain. Good luck with that fantasy. ( please keep on walking by while I am out washing and working on my boat in this 95 degree weather)

      Are you talking about second seat up on the flybridge, or a seat down at the lower helm. At the lower helm, there is no seat at the wheel. Up on the flybridge there is the Stidd Helm Chair at the wheel, and bench seats on each side
