Introducing a meticulously maintained 2005 Custom Carolina Ritchie Howell yacht, located in Ocean City, MD. This 58 ft vessel has undergone significant upgrades and renovations, ensuring it meets the highest standards of comfort and performance.

Advanced electronics, including two 14″ Garmin screens, Furuno radar, and omni 360 sonar, equip the captain with state-of-the-art navigation tools. The yacht’s commitment to comfort is further evidenced by the new Subzero refrigerators and hot water heater installed in April 2023, alongside the new A/C units, ensuring a pleasant environment regardless of the weather.
