1991 WILLARD MK7 DOUBLE Cabin 33' Water Taxi CUMMINS w 414 hrs 24 Person NON SINKABLE with Head!

This vessel was a US Navy Admirals or Captain's personal and/or VIP Taxi. The are affectionally called Admirals Gigs or Captain's Gigs but technically they are taxis and the US Coast Guard will recognize it as such. If you are looking for a commercial taxi this vessel will be easy to walk through the passenger approval process. If your interested in having an UNSINKABLE YACHT and a safe and secure DIY personal yacht for your friends and family this is one anyone can put their personal touch on and they are very easy to convert to a personal Yacht, Dive Boat or combo Dive / Sport Fishing boat. We have bought and sold dozens and dozens of these vessels over the years and this is a top of the line vessel. Actually we have never had one with all these features: There were many manufactures of these type of vessels and WILLARD is not only by far the very best manufacture but they are still in business. Of those the WILLARD MK7 DOUBLE CABIN 33 (WDC33) is the best of all. The most prized of the WDC33 have Cummins 6B engines. Of those; The one most prized is the one with the head! This boat has it. Of those the most valuable are: Low engine hours: This one only has 414 hrs. And, The original ship's dolly / yard trailer. (Not included in this price but is optional for $2800) That is a lot of top rated features, but if you don't know what's a captain's Gig is you might not begun to appreciate or understand the opportunity here. FYI: Captain's Gigs "were" the personal taxi of the Admiral's, Captain or high ranking officer on a Naval vessels. Under a directive issued by Naval Air Forces, all 11 carriers were required to turn in their captain’s gigs before June 30, 2009. “Removal of the captain’s gig was done to reduce maintenance costs and free up valuable hangar bay space required by the boats. See article: http://www.navytimes.com/news/2008/02/navy_captgigs_080210w/ The temporary windfall for buyers like ourselves is the ability to own a perfectly good Captain's / Officers transport that was removed due to US Naval Forces directive and not age or mechanical reasons. But this edict was in 2008 and all Captain's Gigs were removed by June 2009. This is one of the last of it's kind, we might not see this opportunity again. ***ALL WEIGHTS AND MEASUREMENTS PROVIDED ARE APPROXIMATE AND MAY VARY*** ENGINE CUMMINS FUEL: DIESEL TOTAL ENGINE HOURS: 414 Specs Builder: Willard Capacity Including Crew 24 1991 WILLARD DOUBLE CABIN CAPTAIN'S GIG w/ head HULL MATERIAL: FIBERGLASS SINGLE SKIN; Dimensions LOA: 33' Beam: 11' Maximum Draft: 4' Displacement: 15,000 lbs Engines Engine Brand: Cummins Engine(s) HP: 220 Engine Model: BTA5.9-220 Engine Hours: 414 Tanks Fuel Tanks: Diesel Accommodations Forward and aft cabins, center cockpit.

Answer to many questions: The boat does run and is sea worthy, it will require new batteries, oil & filters. Personally, I would plan to flush fuel tanks and a few days of general maintenance We do not finance Would consider trades The boat could be used as is but would probably be a wise investment to paint the bottom and possibly the top The boat is in a secure storage yard and can be inspected at 100 Ave. T Del Rio Texas 78840 The vessel is sold ASIS However we will guaranty our word, description and photos with a 14 day money back guarantee. The boat is 200 miles away from the Sea and can not be splashed and driven away from it's current location. However, we do have trucks to haul to the marina or port of your choice.

New batteries, change oil and filters, other items such as but not limited to compass, life jackets and other safety equipment required by coast guard, VHF radio and make ready as would be required with any vessel that sat for a while. The boat does not have a bimini top Yard trailer is not DOT LEGAL, it's sole purpose is to move the boat around the ship and yard Crane Load out fee is $700 which will be in addition to the purchase price Delivery is available anywhere in the world.
