REMARKS
CHRISTINA is a true fish raising world traveler having just returned from Bermuda fishing the summer season 2023. Built by Roy Merritt and his experienced crew to take you to remote locations with economy and comfort. With reliable Cat Power and back-up systems throughout, CHRISTINA has been painstakingly refit to travel and fish big game or light tackle for marlin and tuna anywhere offshore. Upgraded, refit and maintained by Merritt Boat and Engine Works, she must be seen to be fully appreciated. Too many upgrades and improvements since 2018 to mention. Come see for yourself this classic, rugged, stylish fishing machine, she turns heads in every port she enters.
