2021/43 ft/Sidney, BC

US$ 1,295,000CA

A  truly unique opportunity to acquire an essentially new, Canadian licenced,  American Tug 435 -- 

  Without the Luxury Tax or the Wait for a new delivery !

She's "turn key" and ready to cruise.

NOTE: Vessel hull was laid in 2021 and stamped as such, but the build was only completed with final commissioning and delivery in August 2023 -- She has only 18 break-in hours! She's fully equipped including an extensive Garmin electronics package, Water-maker, Hydronic heat,  Bow and Stern thrusters, an aftermarket cockpit steering station and so much more. A thorough post construction survey was conducted and any items noted were fully addressed.  Also of note is that this vessel has been equipped with custom features not available at the factory.

Manufacturer Provided Description

The American Tug 435 is a highly capable yacht. Take her anywhere: explore the Inside Passage to Alaska, the California coast south to Mexico; cruise the Great Lakes, the Intracoastal Waterway, the Bahamas, or complete America’s Great Loop.

Designed for cruisers who want to stay out longer, the 435 features a two stateroom/two head configuration. The primary stateroom has a beam-to-beam layout with generous storage and an ensuite head. The guest stateroom has a Pullman queen and an additional ensuite head. The pilothouse offers excellent sight lines, generous spaces, helm chair and passenger seating with access doors to port and starboard. The salon features a large U-shaped galley, entertainment centre, L-shaped settee and room for a floating lounge chair. 

Standard equipment on this boat has been designed with the comfort and safety of a cruising couple in mind, including bow and stern thrusters, an upper deck crane with hydraulic lift and rotation and an upper deck walk-through from the pilothouse in lieu of a vertical ladder. 

Design Notes

The American Tug 435 combines practicality, functionality, and comfort with a beautiful blend of reliability, seaworthiness, and an emphasis on high quality appliances, electronics, and equipment. Having being designed for the Pacific Northwest, this vessel is built to handle bad weather with ease, while providing the highest levels of safety and comfort for the owner. This is the ultimate Coastal Explorer for a cruising couple, but that's not to say that it can't easily handle guests with its fantastic 2-stateroom layout, sizeable galley, and comfortable salon. Finally, the classic lines of all American tug's is prevalent and makes this vessel a timeless masterpiece!
