1996 Lakeview 66 x 16 Widebody Houseboat

This 1996 Lakeview 66 x 16 Widebody is an aluminum-hulled houseboat with three Mercruiser engines totaling 240 horsepower. Power for ship's systems comes from 50-amp shorepower or an onboard Westerbeke 12.5kW generator. Bow and stern thrusters are installed for docking assistance.

The main salon features an open layout with generous seating, a flat-screen television, and fireplace. The galley is equipped with refrigerator/freezer, oven, stove, microwave, dishwasher, trash compactor, two-bowl stainless steel sink, and substantial pantry storage. A circular dining table sits adjacent to additional pantry space. Two staterooms provide overnight accommodation, with two heads offering full shower stalls and macerators. Two lower cuddy cabins currently serve as office and storage space. A stacked washer and dryer is located in the master stateroom.

The lower bow deck includes a full isinglass enclosure, mini-fridge, and patio furniture. The upper deck is expansive, with patio furniture, grill, dockboxes, and large canopy. Dual helm stations—one upper, one lower—allow operation from either location. The boat can be controlled from both decks.

Recent updates include new inverter and lithium batteries installed in 2025, along with serviced outdrives, new bow and stern thrusters, new windlass with 200 feet of line, new trash compactor, and new master mattress. The interior received significant attention in 2023: new outdoor carpet, isinglass bow enclosure, wood finish flooring, salon fireplace, quartz kitchen countertops, drapes and blinds throughout, along with refinished cabinetry and freshly painted interior walls.
