St Thomas, Virgin Islands (US)

$289,000

Anthem is a home on the water and is ready for cruising! This gorgeous trawler provides all of the comforts of home and offers owners an off-the-grid, sustainable existence. Anthem’s current owners have replaced old house batteries with a comprehensive lithium-powered solution, a new Onan Cummins generator backup and enough solar to keep systems topped up and running in the Caribbean sunlight. The yacht feels comfortable, with carpeted floors, a full-sized galley, living room and 3 comfortable staterooms. Freshwater is supplied by a fully-installed Rainman water maker and the entire yacht is air-conditioned. The mechanical spaces onboard are clean and spacious, allowing for easy access to maintain the vessel. This turnkey live aboard routinely travels throughout the Virgin Islands in search of calm anchorages and isolated beaches. This is your invitation to start the cruising lifestyle of your dreams aboard Anthem.
