1980 Jersey 40FT Convertible

This 1980 Jersey 40-foot convertible is a diesel-powered sportfish built on a fiberglass hull, measuring 14.5 feet across the beam. Twin Caterpillar engines produce 640 horsepower combined and have been recently serviced with 100 hours of work performed by a Caterpillar technician. Total engine hours since new stand at 2,800. The boat cruises at 15 to 17 knots while consuming approximately 20 gallons per hour across both engines.

Accommodations consist of a single cabin with one head. The galley and dinette are positioned below, while the interior benefits from an open layout without a salon bulkhead, creating notably spacious living quarters. Soft furnishings have been updated. The cockpit features custom mezzanine seating with chair and table, complemented by a full tuna tower and double spreader outriggers designed for fishing operations.

Electronics include a Raymarine Open Array E120 chartplotter with radar, GPS, and fish finder capability, a Robertson autopilot, and VHF radio. A 7.5-kilowatt Onan generator with approximately 600 hours of service supports onboard systems. Newer air conditioning equipment is installed. A full system review confirms all mechanical and electrical components are functioning properly.
