MINKIE B is a 46′ Lyman-Morse 1997 custom flybridge designed by C. Raymond Hunt, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship, performance, and design. Meticulously maintained with over $350,000 in recent upgrades, she offers a comfortable layout and proven capability. MINKIE B has been cared for to a high standard and is presented in turn-key condition, ready for immediate cruising.

MINKIE B represents the pinnacle of collaboration between legendary naval architect C. Raymond Hunt and the renowned Lyman-Morse yard. This pedigree is evident in every detail, from her refined lines and exceptional seakeeping to the thoughtful craftsmanship that defines her build. Vessels born from this partnership have long set the standard for quality and capability, and MINKIE B is a superb example of that legacy.

She is a single ensuite stateroom vessel, allowing for a generous working galley that spans port to starboard. Her versatile size and thoughtfully designed layout offer a balance of comfort, usability, and performance that remains as relevant today as when she was launched.

In recent years, significant investments exceeding $350,000 have been made to enhance and maintain the vessel. The current owners have approached her care with a clear commitment to preservation and improvement, including a new bow thruster, updated batteries, a Freedom lift, upgraded refrigeration, custom teak bench seating, and new teak in the cockpit. Also included is a 2015 AB 10VSX tender with a 4-person capacity and Yamaha 25HP outboard engine.

Always stored in a heated indoor facility, MINKIE B has benefited from consistent protection and meticulous maintenance. She is cruise-ready for this summer and her next chapter on the water.
