1997 Fairline Squadron 65

SEA HAWK is a great boat for a couple or a cruising family. It comfortably sleeps 8 guests in 4 staterooms with 3 heads, plus crew quarters. The spacious full-beam master is comfortable for extended stays aboard. With only 3 owners throughout her life, SEA HAWK has been carefully cared for and well-maintained by the same Captain for 20 years. Powered by twin MAN 1100hp diesel engines and an Onan 20kW generator, she offers reliability and power. Her recent refit completed in 2022 included full exterior paintjob, new interior and exterior upholstery, a refinished salon bar, redesigned salon settees, and updated staterooms, making her ready for her next adventure.
