1978 Egg Harbor 36 Convertible – Repowered 454s, Garmin 1242, Diesel Heat, Recent Survey
A classic with character, this 1978 Egg Harbor 36’ Sedan has been thoughtfully and thoroughly upgraded to provide modern reliability while maintaining the charm and craftsmanship of a vintage yacht. Since purchasing the boat in 2019, I’ve invested in extensive improvements focused on performance, safety, comfort, and livability. This vessel is turn-key and ideal for Northwest cruising, liveaboard life, or weekend getaways.
The boat is currently moored in a covered slip at Stimson Marina in Ballard, one of Seattle’s most desirable locations for year-round boating. Arrangements could likely be made to transfer the slip with the sale of the boat, offering added convenience and exceptional value.
This Egg Harbor is well-maintained and has been consistently improved with long-term ownership in mind. It combines timeless lines and solid construction with modern systems for a unique, dependable cruiser. Whether you’re hosting friends, taking the family out for a weekend, or just escaping to the water, this boat is ready for her next chapter.
