This 1987 CHB 46 is a full-displacement cruising motor yacht built by Chien Hwa Boat Building Co., a Taiwanese builder respected for heavy construction and thoughtful design. The boat measures 46 feet in length with a 14-foot beam and carries twin Perkins 200-horsepower diesel engines, each with approximately 1,350 hours, paired with a Northern Lights generator. The fiberglass hull is hand-laid and built to offshore standards, with a deep keel that provides excellent stability and sea-keeping characteristics. Fuel capacity is approximately 500 gallons, water capacity 100 gallons, and holding tank capacity 20 gallons.
The interior reflects high-quality joinery throughout, with warm wood finishing and practical storage design for extended liveaboard use. The main salon is a large, open living space with windows around and a lower helm station integrated into the layout. Two oversized reclining couches provide comfortable seating. A galley forward of the salon includes a refrigerator, oven, stovetop, microwave, and ample counter and storage space, with a dining settee directly adjacent for casual meals.
The boat features two cabins: a forward V-berth cabin with its own head and shower, and an aft master cabin spanning the full beam with a bed, head, shower, and newer washer and dryer units. An enclosed upper room aft of the salon offers expansive windows, comfortable seating, and a bar area. An aft cockpit provides outdoor living space and is equipped with an Achilles dinghy with Yamaha 4-horsepower outboard mounted on a stainless steel davit system for easy launching and retrieval.
Navigation equipment includes a Simrad Halo 20 Plus radar, chartplotter, Robertson AP 100 DL autopilot, Cobra Marine VHF radio, and depth sounder. Both diesel engines start readily, as does the generator.
