Boat Description

BAD HABITS is a unique custom design by Ernest Libby, crafted in Beals Island, ME. This boat seamlessly combines traditional Downeast craftsmanship with high-performance features, tailored specifically for passionate anglers. Originally designed for both recreational and commercial purposes, she has undergone significant upgrades by her current owner and has been utilized for fishing charters. **ON DECK**: Enjoy a spacious wheelhouse equipped with a helm station offering a 360° view and comfortable settees on the port and center. The oversized open cockpit boasts a 13-foot beam. **POWER**: She's powered by a robust 575 hp Scania D112-42 M engine with 8,500 hours, featuring heat exchanger cooling and dry stack exhaust, cruising comfortably at 14 knots. The 12kW MASA generator provides ample power, and with a fuel capacity of 375 gallons, her range is unparalleled. **ELECTRONICS**: Equipped with three VHF radios (Standard Horizon, ICOM), dual Furuno 1595 Radar systems, and North Star 952X GPS. She also features three chartplotters (two Raymarine Hybrid Touch and Raytheon L1250 depth sounder), Raymarine autopilot, and Ritchie compass. **ACCOMMODATIONS/INTERIOR LAYOUT**: The interior comfortably accommodates four with two upper/lower berths in the forward cabin. The head features a Jabsco electric toilet with shower, while the galley includes a stainless steel sink, Isotherm fridge, and Sharp microwave. Additional amenities include a Jensen AM/FM Sirius satellite system, CD/DVD/VCR player, and a Samsung flatscreen TV. **FISHABILITY**: A 2023 electric pot hauler with davit, a large insulated livewell with a 4500 gpm pump, and multiple mounted rod holders enhance her fishing capabilities. She comes equipped with high-end fishing gear and custom outriggers, along with built-in tackle boxes in the wheelhouse and a walk-through transom. **UPGRADES**: Recent enhancements include a new 8D 12v house battery for 2025, two Durabrite lights with new wiring (one spot, one flood), a Garbor plug installed in the keel for 2024, three new thru-hulls, and a removable daybed in the cabin. In 2023, a new second station and helm with controls, a new electric pot hauler with davits, and a new 4500 GPM washdown/livewell pump were also added, alongside new hydraulic hoses to the helm on the rear deck and a satellite antenna for TV.
