43´ Marine Trader Tradewinds Sundeck 1987 "Lazy Manatee"
With a fresh bottom paint in 2023, "Lazy Manatee" is a perfect example of the Marine Trader Tradewinds 43 Sundeck, the popular contemporary motor yacht styled trawler with planning-speed performance. Below deck all teak and Air-Conditioned interior is beautiful and in excellent condition with large wraparound windows and plenty of headroom, the interior is well designed and offers a lot of volume for the size of the boat. Her reliable two 275 Lehman's will deliver a cruising speed of 9 knots and a top speed of 12 knots, however at 7-10 knots the engines will be loafing and a 7-knot cruising speed will burn approximately 3 GPH. Popular for a permanent liveaboard/cruising vessel, or just a weekend condo, this Tradewinds 43 is an excellent affordable choice.
