This 1987 Blackfin 32 Flybridge is a diesel-powered offshore boat built on a fiberglass hull, measuring 32 feet in length with an 11-foot 11-inch beam. Twin Caterpillar 3208TA engines produce 750 horsepower combined, delivering cruising speeds around 18 knots and a top speed of 26 knots. The boat is rigged for serious fishing, with a custom tuna tower featuring an upper helm station, outriggers, a gunnel mackerel tube, windlass anchor, and trim tabs for stability and control.
The single cabin accommodates overnight stays with a galley equipped with a two-burner stove, microwave, and new Vissani refrigerator. A 60-gallon bait tank with four-scoop capacity supports fishing operations. The head is electric, and a 2600-watt inverter provides auxiliary power. The boat carries a 290-gallon aluminum fuel tank installed in 2016.
The engines have substantial service history. The starboard block was replaced in October 2013 with factory OEM components including a new turbo, fuel pump, aftercooler, and manifold. The port block was similarly overhauled and replaced in 2017. Transmission coolers were updated in 2016. The engines underwent their full 2000-hour service in 2025, which included a complete cooling system refresh, new impellers, and new fluids. The hull received a professional Awlgrip Mattahorn white paint application in 2016 and 2017. Teak was refreshed in 2025. Systems including fuel and bilge pumps, batteries, radio, through-hulls, and props have been maintained and replaced as needed.
