Bluewater Cruising Yachts, are built in Mora, Minnesota USA. Three generations of the Klapmeier family and their 3,000 employees, have been building these lovely vessels for many years and the build quality is evident, once on board.
The 5800 Custom, was designed as a planning hull for inland and coastal waterways in the USA and combines the interior comfort and luxury of a smooth water vessel, with power, speed and sufficient ruggedness, to handle coastal passages when required.
This particular vessel was imported to Australia by the current owner in 2013 and has since been converted to 240v.
Since build in 1999, there have been many upgrades on this lovely vessel with the current owners having no intention to sell. This unfortunately, has now changed due to personal circumstances beyond their control.

A great feature of this vessel, is the saloon, galley and aft master suite, are all on the entry level, with only the forward VIP suite, on the lower level.
Access to the flybridge is via an aft staircase from the cockpit deck and also via stairs from both side decks.
As you reach the top of the flybridge aft staircase, you enter into a stunning and vast entertaining area with comfortable lounges, a circular table, double door Isotherm refrigeration, a sink with hot/cold taps, a large stainless BBQ with external venting and loads of storage space.
Up front on the flybridge, is the main helm station, with comfortable seating and a modern Raymarine Axiom navigation system.
