    Docked 50 miles from Anchorage Alaska.  Dockage IS available for $700. per month. The vessel stay’s in the water year round and is available to be viewed. She came on her bottom direct from the Factory in Washington State to Alaska. ALL upgrades and servicing has always been by the MERIDIAN dealer who sold her new- who is flown in from Portland Oregon to the vessel- to keep her train of maintenance and warranties intact. Owner will consider trades for a late model Sport Fishing boat of equal value. Priced correctly for the way she’s equipped, plus her location.  Will assist in Delivery down South if required.  Meridian no longer builds Pilothouse Yachts. The last year of MFG for a Pilothouse was 2008.  This is the LAST ONE EVER BUILT purchased NEW June 2009. Extremely well equipped. Obviously equipped and maintained without regard to cost.  Photos are of the actual vessel, and I, Blake Davis (the Pilothouse King “meridianpilothouse.com”) will be visiting this boat and taking over 100 photos myself as soon as the weather allows. Here’s a rare find for my Alaskan and Pacific NW clients. Reportedly the very last 490 manufactured by Meridian. Sold and delivered from the closed Factory in June 2009.  Very well equipped and 100% turn key and cruise:   380 HP QSM electronic controlled engines w/275 hours (engine room access through salon floor w/ladder instead “tunnel of knee pain” as on earlier pre-05 models) 13.5kw Generator in sound shield w/100 hours 2500 Watt Inverter (factory installed) for converting DC power to AC power FACTORY installed Bow Thruster with dual controls Cockpit controls (total of 3 stations) allow you to operate the boat from the cockpit (think backing in or fishing) with own GPS/plotter. Trolling valves (allows the vessel to keep a constant speed without having to put in neutral and gear) Rare and hefty option. Great for fishing AND operating in slow speed No Wake zones. Marine AC and reverse cycle heat. 3 units (rather rare West Coast option) Espar 50,000 BTU forced air diesel heat (ducted through-out) which is nice for Alaska and other very cold climes Apex 11′ RIB w/25hp Tohatsu outboard with it’s own Garmin GPS/Plotter (note photos) Davit (750 lb capacity -standard but worth mentioning non-the-less) 44lb BRUCE anchor w/300′ of chain and 500′ of rode.   Best yet, the bow pulpit has been removed forthree (3) purposes- first: so all that chain and rode doesn’t rattle and bounce around going down, and two: She now fit’s in most boathouses and at condo docks that have length restrictions. Third: These yachts look cleaner and more contemporary without them.  Flybridge enclosure (note photo) from factory Cherry wood interior w/black countertops  Icemaker in salon  washer/dryer  Central Vacumn  trash compactor in galley  20″ Flat screen TV w/surround sound, CD stereo system  Recliner couches in salon.
