Description
Dorcas Ann is an excellent example of the classic design DeFevers are known for. Heavily constructed on a solid fiberglass displacement hull, the DeFever 43 is a flush deck design with the aft deck and side decks on the same level. The result is a boat with slightly higher freeboard, very spacious aft deck area and large, full width master stateroom. Dorcas Ann has just been refit with new fuel tanks, batteries and wiring and much more. Other recent updates include fully enclosed flybridge and sundeck, Northern Lights generator, full size washer dryer, top of the line galley appliances including dishwasher, stainless steel water heater and vacuflush heads. The current owners have enjoyed cruising the East coast and Chesapeake Bay and have kept her well maintained. They have worked hard to finish the most recent refit and there are still a few things that will need to be done so they lowered the price dramatically to sell her now as is. Please see all of the listing for full details and list of amenities and equipment.
