Cruisers Yachts has built a longstanding reputation for producing comfortable cruising yachts with innovative layouts, substantial interior volume and strong emphasis on entertaining and extended time aboard. Built in Oconto, Wisconsin, Cruisers Yachts designs combine practical cruising systems with thoughtfully arranged interior and exterior living spaces. The 4450 Express Motoryacht is one of Cruisers Yachts' most distinctive designs, blending the lower-profile styling and social cockpit of an express cruiser with the spacious accommodations traditionally associated with an aft-cabin motor yacht. Measuring 45'6" overall with a substantial 15'4" beam, the 4450 offers three private staterooms, two heads, a full-beam aft owner's suite, a large salon and galley, wide side decks, expansive foredeck lounging space and a connected helm and cockpit designed to keep guests together underway. Family Ties is a 2002 Cruisers Yachts 4450 Express Motoryacht equipped with twin Caterpillar 3126 diesel engines with approximately 500 hours, Side-Power bow thruster, Onan 12.5 kW generator, custom hydraulic tender and swim platform, solar charging and a 3000W inverter/charger. Long-term Great Lakes use has been complemented by meaningful upgrades including upgraded cockpit upholstery, SeaDek at the platform and stairs, a full cockpit enclosure and an upgraded five-blade Side-Power bow-thruster propeller. The three-stateroom interior includes a full-beam aft owner's suite with island queen and private ensuite, forward VIP accommodations, convertible third stateroom, expansive salon and a full galley with dishwasher and full-size refrigerator/freezer. Extensive mechanical service records accompany the vessel, including Caterpillar service and significant running-gear work.
