With an engine overhaul completed less than 2000 hours ago, a new steering ram and hoses, updated wiring for all bilge alarms and pumps, fresh paint, and a state-of-the-art transducer that can accurately measure the ocean floor at depths of up to 4800ft, she is truly a remarkable vessel.The current owner is willing to reinstate Certificate of Inspection (COI) allowing for up to 41 passengers, or alternatively, sell Betty Ann with her current six-pack fishing setup.
