The Yacht
The most renowned 70 sled on the Great Lakes, Pied Piper has been beautifully kept and is in turnkey condition. With the Santa Cruz 70 Bill Lee designed one of the fastest, most thrilling offshore machines ever built. This example, launched on Lake Michigan in 1986, defined her category and today still sets the pace, as sleek and powerful as the day she rolled out of the factory. A major investment in new 3DL inventory occurred in 2007. It was barely used because the boat remained high and dry after 2008. The magnificent, Coast Guard-documented yacht is owned free and clear. Potent under any rule. PRICE REDUCTION 4.15.11 – $395,000 USD.
