Could this be the last Endeavour 44 TrawlerCat ever built?

Here's where it gets interesting. Nine Lives, a 2012 boat that has been offered through several brokerages, has been reported as Hull #49 and long treated as the last of the 44s, until now. Every U.S. boat carries a 12-character hull identification number, or HIN, and Lady Diane's is ECR44350F314. The first three characters (ECR) are the builder, Endeavour. The next five, 44350, are the serial number. The last two digits of Lady Diane's serial number point to her being Hull #50, leading us to believe she may very well be the last of this very popular line of boats.

Lady Diane was built for the Great Loop and she's ready to go.

Real talk from YaZu, a local broker has perks.

Having a local broker means having a pulse on local inventory, knowledge on the local boat yards, and personal relationships with the local service technicians… often way better information than you’ll ever find on a website.

That’s just one advantage of a local broker. Stay tuned for more.

Every boat deserves to be understood for what it is, not just compared to what else is on the market.

That matters even more when a boat has been thoughtfully modified, meticulously maintained and shaped around a very specific kind of cruising.

That is the kind of brokerage work we love.

It means taking the time to understand the decisions behind a boat, recognizing the value in the details and finding the buyer who sees the vision just as clearly as the seller did.

For Herkee, that meant helping one cruising dream pass into the hands of another.

And right now, there are more aspiring Loopers looking for the right boat to carry them through the Great American Loop. We have some strong candidates in the YaZu fleet, and we’re always looking for more.

If you own a boat that has been outfitted with the Loop, long-range cruising or a particular adventure in mind, we’d love to hear its story.

Congrats to Cheyenne and Merlie on the sale of this one-of-a-kind vessel, and fair seas to Jamie & Sarah on their new adventure!
