General

Pegasus is a sturdy but nicely equipped motor cruiser built by Prima Yachts. We are the third owners, and she has been well maintained throughout her life. Her twin Cummins Diamond C Series 450 hp diesel engines with only 1132 hours provide economical operation both from the standpoint of fuel and maintenance. The shallow draft and full keel permit thin water cruising not normally available on a boat this size. She cruises comfortably around 10 knots and has been operated for short periods up to 17 knots. The hull is solid fiberglass, and the decks and bridge areas are done in Nydacor for strength and low weight. She has two 300 gallon fuel tanks and one 200 gallon water tank.

Owners Remarks

We purchased this boat in 2013 and immediately began renovations in excess of $41,000 which included a new full enclosure of the flybridge; new batteries, battery ends and boxes; recovering all upholstery and window trim; new hot water heater; water filter for sink; refurbishing hydraulic lift; custom tender mount; installing three deck boxes; reworking both exhaust systems on engines; a multitude of new hoses and clamps. Subsequent to that renovation, we purchased a new AB 9vs dinghy and cover and a new BF-10 Honda outboard for approximately $7,500; a new Revere Offshore Elite 8 person life raft for $3,500; three new deck boxes with white vinyl cushions for $3,200; a new Vesper Class B AIS transponder and splitter for $2,000 which included installation; a second anchor (Delta), two inflatable fenders, and a water filter for $1,025. So prior to us taking off in the boat, we spent in excess of $58,000 getting it ready to cruise. Since we began cruising the middle of 2013, we have added a Garmin chartplotter (740 series); added a new Xantrex Freedom 458 inverter/charger; had all film on windows removed and retinted; had fuel tanks cleaned and polished the fuel; installed a new Lewmar motor for the windlass; installed a new alternator and raw water pump on the port engine; replaced the starter batteries for both engines and the genset; had the boat hauled, bottom cleaned and painted, and zincs checked and replaced in February 2015; replaced the A/C compressor unit for the cabins and are in the process of replacing the A/C compressor unit for the salon.

As you can see, we have maintained the boat in excellent operating condition and will continue to do so. We have found Pegasus to be an extremely comfortable and safe boat for cruising and entertaining family and friends, having cruised the Tenn-Tom waterway, the Gulf coast, the Florida Keys, Florida's east coast, and the Bahamas.
