Overview:

“Condor” is a beautifully maintained 1981 Truant 370 Pilothouse, designed by the renowned naval architect William Garden. Known for her seaworthiness and elegant lines, she turns heads wherever she cruises. Solidly built and extremely capable, Condor handles rough water with confidence and sails smoothly.

With 300 hours on a 2020 Beta 38 hp diesel engine, a SidePower bow thruster, and excellent 360° visibility from the pilothouse, she’s both enjoyable and easy to handle. Wide walk-around decks provide safe and convenient access to all areas. Numerous upgrades over the past six years make her a turn-key vessel ready for coastal cruising.

Sellers have owned her for 7 years and have spent over $130,000 in upgrades and maintenance. Condor is a spectacular boat, she exudes warmth, beautiful light and is meticulous. A must see!
