Enjoy every nautical mile of the journey aboard Imagine. This well-kept 2008 Mainship 400 trawler is owned by experienced America's Great Loop Cruising Association members who have completed America's Great Loop twice aboard Imagine. She has a reliable and fuel-efficient 380 HP Yanmar engine, bow and stern thrusters for easy maneuverability, a 9 KW Kohler generator, two reverse cycle air conditioning units, a Walker Bay dinghy, and an outboard. The vessel features an owner's cabin forward with a double bed, a head with a separate shower, a guest cabin with two single beds, a spacious salon with a sofa, a galley with a seating area, an internal helm, and a flybridge with a helm and seating.

Stability, Fuel Efficiency, Maneuverability, and Range

The Mainship 400 offers a stable ride, excellent fuel efficiency (single-engine version), and easy maneuverability. The full keel ensures excellent stability underway, and the skeg extends aft to protect the rudder and running gear on the single-engine version. The 380 HP Yanmar is reliable when properly maintained and consumes approximately 1.6 gallons per hour at a cruising speed of seven knots/1,700 RPM. The top speed is approximately twelve knots. The bow and stern thrusters are game-changers!
