$549,000 USD

GOOSE is a rare opportunity to purchase an iconic 46’ Merritt Custom Sportfisherman. She was originally built as the “CHARADE” (Hull #42) and is being offered for sale by only her 3rd owner.

GOOSE has received many updates over the years. She has been re-powered with a set of R-6 800 HP common-rail MAN engines, which produce great speed and performance.

A couple additional notable upgrades/features include: updated cockpit fuel tanks, updated teak deck, master stateroom re-configured to a queen berth, beautiful teak interior woodwork, etc.
