I have now owned and lived aboard my 1989 DeFever 44 Offshore Cruiser, aka Trawler, for 6 years. This is part 1 of a 3 part tour of the vessel. In this part, I will walk you through the interior and show you what I love about the boat, dislike about the boat, and what I have done to upgrade to make the boat more comfortable, safe, reliable, and aesthetically pleasing. I also share with you what the associated costs are with the repairs, replacements, and upgrades to date. Parts 2 and 3 will cover the exterior (part 2), and the engine room, electrical, mechanical, and plumbing components (part 3). So stay tuned and subscribe so that you can catch those videos in the next couple of weeks.
