1987 President 41 Double Cabin

This 1987 President 41 Double Cabin is a fiberglass motor yacht built for extended cruising and liveaboard comfort. Powered by twin Lehman turbo diesel engines rated at 275 hp each with approximately 2,600 hours, the yacht cruises at 12 knots and reaches 18 knots at full throttle. She carries 240 gallons of fuel across two tanks, 120 gallons of freshwater, and a 40-gallon black water tank, supporting genuine long-range capability. An 8kW Westerbeke generator with remote start and a recently replaced water pump provide auxiliary power and hot water from a 15-gallon heater.

The yacht features dual helm stations—upper and lower—both equipped with compass, Robertson AP100 autopilot, Furuno radar, and VHF radio. A Lewmar windlass handles ground tackle consisting of a plow anchor, large Danforth, and over 120 feet of 3/8-inch chain. Recent improvements include new hydraulic steering pump components rebuilt in 2017, new swim platform added in 2017, and fresh Strataglass enclosures installed on both helms. A Xantrex 2000 Pure Sine Inverter from 2018 and a galvanic isolator added in 2023 support both 50-amp and 30-amp shore power service.

The double cabin layout accommodates eight berths: a forward double, two twin berths, a galley convertible, and a leather pull-out double in the salon. Two heads each with shower stall serve the interior. Recent comfort upgrades include new Dometic air conditioning and heating units installed in 2022, a Norcold refrigerator and freezer, a Galanz combination microwave and convection oven from 2022, and a glass-top Empava cooktop paired with new Corian countertops and Formica surfaces completed in 2019.

The yacht includes modern appointments throughout: double-lined blackout drapes with reflective film on forward windows, three cabin fans, a safe, and an array of extras such as fenders, spare lines, tools, fluids, and spare parts. The upper helm can be accessed from inside, allowing operation without exposure to weather. Exterior cosmetic work may be desired, though the boat is equipped and maintained for immediate travel.
