  • Serendipity: 1973 Steury Houseboat

    This boat is a gem. She's 23' long with an 8' beam and is a 'trailerable houseboat' - though does not come with a trailer. She has been lovingly enjoyed at a slip in a marina on Cayuga Lake for almost her whole life and is ready for her next adventure!

Rebuilt Engine

Rebuilt in 2008, the 302 Ford engine has 188 horsepower and is fed by two new gas tanks.

Updated Electrical

The boat was completely rewired in 2009 complete with a new breaker panel.

43 Years of Love

A complete binder with inovices, manuals, and receipts document the love and care.

It's a floating cottage!

As you enter the boat from the stern, you step down and on your right is a closet, to the left is the head with removable toilet and propane heated shower. Next comes the galley on the left which has running water and a propane stove - dining table with benches and refridgerator to the right. Then there's the bridge which is positioned across from the couch. At night the couch opens to about a queen-sized bed, while the table drops down and converts to a full sized bed. Step up through the door at the bow and there's a nice sitting area right at the front of the boat. At the stern, there's a ladder that leads you to the roof where there's plenty of space for several people to recline and relax.

There are plenty of cabinets and storage space, and the boat comes with EVERYTHING you need to begin enjoying it immediately. I don't have a lot of photos since the boat is currently winterized and covered with a tarp. I purchased it in the fall of 2013, enjoyed it at the slip for summer 2014, then life got busy and I did not put it on the water summer 2015. She's ready for her next captain!
