“EMJAY” 7.3 m Sonair Cruiser Western Port Bay This is a beautiful cruiser that has the benefit of a built in toilet stall / shower which is unusual for boats this size. Its hull and engine are in great condition. It is a dependable old cruiser that is meant to be fun to be on for men and women going off for a fish or cruising at 30 knotts across to Cowes for the day. Currently moored in dry dock at Hastings Marina and that arrangement can be continued if so desired. Just ring up 30mins before your trip and the boat is already moored at the pier ready to go, use it for as long as need be, then leave it there for the staff to take it out of the water, wash it down and put it away for next time.
Just an hour from Melbourne it is an amazing way to gain access to Western Port and Phillip Island with no fuss around trailers and towing etc. The fee for Dry Docking at Hastings is $2226 per year, unlimited launch/retrieval. 2 x 80 litre unleaded tanksMercruiser 5 Litre V8 inbuilt petrol bravo 2 drive single prop (carburetta)Transom assembly renewed 2 years ago so engine in great conditionFibreglass Planing hull - Lowrance lc X-25 depth finder mounted on dash.- Electric anchor winch with 80 feet anchor chain/rope- Triple battery system including start battery and house battery.

This boat belonged to my Father who no longer can use it due to ill health so it is a reluctant sale.
The woodwork/switching panel in the cockpit needs some upkeep if you are so inclined but it is a solid dependable boat ready to be used and loved. The Trailer, though working, needs to be replaced soon due to rust - ive costed a new one at 3 -6 k depending on your planned useage. In the meantime the trailer is working ok as a yard trailer for its use in the Marina. My father towed this boat most of its life so as long as you have a car that can tow it, it is fully transportable. I am very happy to walk through all the details around the boat and its condition but it has always been an unbelievably reliable vessel that is easy to be in and handle.
It has always been used for fishing so no problems there. Please call for a chat and very happy to take you for a run in Western Port Bay. Pete Pilley phone
