This 53' Mason is a dream boat with traditional lines, a solid structure, and amazing space. She sails beautifully and has a lovely interior. Recently upgraded (2023-24) with new canvas (sail bags, bimini, dodgers, sun cover), interior cushions, fresh deck paint, varnished woodwork (10 layers), and a 5-layer copper-coated bottom (2022). Perkins Engine and Northern Light Genset serviced (Feb 2024). A true Blue Water cruiser with extensive inventory, perfect for living aboard. The Mason 53 will be auctioned online at Bright Auctions.
