Water Bear is a spacious center cockpit version of Gary Mulls Freedom 45 design. Built in 1993 by Tillitson-Pearson Inc. (now TPI composites). On deck she boasts a deep secure cockpit with an electric harken halyard winch and an easy to access main traveler. Her decks are open and uncluttered with high stanchions and secure lifelines. Below decks you will be hard pressed to find a more spacious and accommodating interior on a 45' boat. Her large forward cabin opens to an enormous head with ensuite shower. Her main salon is warm and inviting yet also offers more storage than many much larger vessels. Interior upgrades include Seafrost refrigeration and a full new freshwater plumbing system done in PEX. Her large engine room offers access on all sides making service easy. Updated raw water systems and hoses can be found. Her aft cabin with center line queen berth is quite possibly the largest aft cabin on any 45' boat this broker has seen. Her aft head with separate shower round out features that make this boat both a blue water voyager and a comfortable live aboard cruiser. Her current owner has added a new chart plotter, autopilot and controller, GPS antenna, AIS receiver/transmitter, 400 amp hours of lithium batteries, two victron orion charge controllers, a new depth sounder, and a new wind gauge in early 2025.
