The Anchorline team has proudly SOLD & SETTLED the 2003 Fairway 36′ Flybridge ‘Maggie’.
Anchorline is proud to exclusively present the fastidiously maintained 2003 Fairway 36′ Flybridge ‘Maggie’ to the market.
The Australian designed and built Fairway cruiser has proven to be economical, low maintenance, safe, and very sea worthy. Over the years, our brokerage has sold many Fairway 36’s that have traveled as far north as Darwin, down to Tasmania, and across to Adelaide. This 2003 model has only had 3 owners since being launched; she has been maintained in excellent condition, and recent upgrades have been undertaken to ensure she will be cruising for many years to come.
Features that make the Fairway 36 popular include:
– The one level saloon and galley which lead out into the covered cockpit
– A spacious bathroom with a large shower stall.
– Their economical running cost (most average 15-20 lph)
– Uncomplicated systems and easy to maintain
– Uncluttered engine rooms with good access for servicing.
More specifically, this Fairway 36 is a two cabin layout. There is a double berth in the forward cabin and two single berths on the port side. The new electric marine toilet is plumbed to a holding tank via a ‘Y’ value. In addition to the shower in the bathroom, there is also a shower at the transom. There are clothes lockers and storage in both cabins. As with all Fairway’s models, the galley runs the full length of the starboard side of the saloon. There is a front loading Engel fridge/freezer, a 4 burner gas Spinflo cooktop and grill, a toaster, and an LG microwave. There is also a large top loading freezer in the cockpit. Opposite the galley is a large ‘L’ shaped settee with a teak dining table, which can be converted to provide an additional berth if required. Timber venetian blinds are fitted to the saloon windows, there is LED lighting throughout and breezeway covers are fitted to the forward (accommodation) windows. There is also a shade cloth window cover on the front window.
The lower helm station has a recently installed Garmin touch-screen depth sounder, GPS, and a Raymarine autopilot. There is a GME VHF and a Sony AM/FC CD stereo. The Side-Power Bow and Stern thrusters and the windlass can be operated via their respective remotes at both stations. The windlass can also be operated from the foredeck.
Access to the engine compartment is via two large hatches in the saloon floor. The 320hp Iveco (N60) has recently been serviced and presents very well. It must be noted that a new engine wiring harness was fitted to the boat in September 2023. The two fuel and two water tanks are located on either side of the main engine. The 7 KVA Aquavolt generator is housed aft of the main engine. From the saloon, you walk straight out onto the uncluttered (carpeted) cockpit. The awning and clears (around the sides) make this space usable in all types of weather. Access to the swim platform is through a transom door, and a stainless steel ladder takes you up to the flybridge. Neatly housed under the ladder is the 12V top loading freezer/fridge. A large hatch in the floor gives access to the lazarette (great for storing crab pots), and there are lockers around the cockpit for stowing lines, fenders, etc. There is also a BBQ mounted to the transom on the port side.
With clears around three sides on the flybridge and a bimini, you enjoy cruising from up here or just relaxing whilst at anchor. The two long settees are great for lounging and there is plenty of space on the flybridge deck for lying in the sun, sitting on a beam bag, or storing equipment. The 2 year old inflatable RIB is kept on a stainless steel cradle and is powered by a near new 8hp Yamaha outboard. These were purchased in 2021. If you’re heading somewhere with a bridge, the bimini can be lowered to give better clearance.
Having just been antifouled and all maintenance up to date, you can step aboard and be out on the water in time for the Christmas holidays and the summer cruising season. A private inspection of ‘Maggie’ is highly recommended, will not disappoint, and is available by prior appointment in Manly, Brisbane. Please contact our office for further details.
