Getting ready to sell

[BoatFolks]

We will be putting Andante, our 1994 Ocean Alexander Classico 423, on the market at the start of next season and are getting the word out early so folks who may be interested can plan ahead for a visit. We are in Vermont on Lake Champlain currently and prior to that were in the New York Harbor. She traveled extensively with previous owners including the Great Loop, along the East Coast and multiple trips to the Bahamas. Andante has rebuilt Caterpillar 3208 NA engines (x2) with 420 total hp, a fully enclosed hardtop flybridge, and a closed-loop multiple zone Kabola diesel heating system that has made for cozy winters as full time liveaboards. She is a fantastic and well-loved boat - comfortable and beautiful and well-maintained. As a young family of four it was a wonderful first home together and we will all miss her dearly, but life is taking us in a different direction.

If you are interested in more information or have a friend who might want to connect, please don’t hesitate to get in touch at rengeleer AT gmail DOT com. We’d be happy to share more in-depth specs and connect in the new year as we hope to find the next great owners who will do right by her — and we will of course post in the For Sale section here once she’s officially on the market. We just wanted to get the word out to you all first. Happy holidays to all!

Very nice, that would be great upgrade for us. We are currently on Lake Champlain also.

Nice looking boat. Look forward to more pictures. Can you show me the ER outer access on those 08’s?

Hi CharlieO, that would be a pretty convenient upgrade what with already being on Lake Champlain! We've decided to up our timeline and not wait until the start of the season to list her so I will be posting her in the For Sale section within the next week or so. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you're interested once that goes live and we'd be happy to connect with you.

Hi 1SeaSalt,
Thanks, she's been good to us! I'll be posting in the For Sale section within the next week as we've upped our timeline a bit, so there will be additional photos there. Access to the engine room is excellent, either from under the stairs between the V-berth and galley, or 2) from the salon sole - you can lift up all the panels and pretty much have easy access to just about everything you need. No "boat yoga" to get to anything in the ER on this boat!
