The Med 56 Montecristo is an enclosed aft deck motor yacht built by Angel Marine in Taiwan and imported by Marine Trader. It features a distinctive profile, a traditional all-teak interior, and a solid fiberglass modified-V hull with a long, shallow keel. Its chief claim to fame is an enclosed aft mid-deck that serves as an air-conditioned second salon! The three-stateroom, galley-down floorplan includes double berths fore and aft, single berths in a third stateroom behind the salon, an optional lower helm station, and heads with a split or shared shower configuration. Topside amenities include a large flybridge seating area, wide side decks, excellent storage, a swim platform, and a radar arch. While standard models came with 210hp Cummins diesels, this specific vessel, “1700 Somewhere”, is upgraded with larger 450hp Detroit Diesels.The following equipment was noted and/or reported for this vessel at the time of this marine survey evaluation dated Sept 11 2026:1 Danforth Constellation Compass1 Raymarine Axiom 12RV Display - Depth/Video/Chart/Sonar/Camera/3D Nav 2 Garmin GHC 10 Autopilot (Inop) (“Searching for autopilot controller”)1 Standard Horizon Eclipse VHF (Unwired)1 Standard Horizon QX2410GPS Matrix VHF1 Standard Horizon Depth 1 125V 30A Shore Tie Cable 6 Fenders1 Flybridge Deck Mounted Hinged Radar Arch1 Flybridge Forward Hardtop Mounted Spotlight (Partial movement only)1 Intercom Phone System, Telex 81946 (Inop)1 Ritchie Compass (Has bubble)1 Niles Audio SPS-1 Speaker Selection System1 Raw Water Washdown Pump/System (Inop) (Faucet loose on deck)2 Salon Recliners1 Salon Sofa w/ Dual Recliners1 Edgestar Washer/Dryer Combo (Inop - no power to outlet) 6 Wicker-Style Chairs w/ Cushions1 Perlick Refrigerator/Cooler1 Attached FRP Bow Sprit w/ Anchor Roler Assembly (Some FRP delam)2 Bow Rail Integrated Duel Fender Holder Assemblies1 Attached FRP Swim Platform (Some bottom side fractures)1 Swim Ladder 1 Transom Mounted Boarding Ladder1 Set of Bennett Trim Tabs (Inop)1 Wicker-Style Coffee Table1 Wooden End Table1 Spare Dinghy Fluke Anchor1 Aft Deck Mounted Dinghy Davit w/ Badland 120V 1500LB Electric Wench (Tripping breaker)1 Weems & Plath Clock & Tide (Stowed)1 Weems & Plath Clock (Stowed)1 Weems & Plath Barometer (Stowed)1 Frigidaire Gallery Portable Ice Maker (Not tested)1 ONN 31” Flat Panel TV (Not secured)2 CTM A/C Units w/ Reverse Heat - 16,000 & 10,000 Btu’s1 Pura Flame Electric Fireplace (Not tested)1 Pyle PLMRKT38W Stereo1 Pyle PLMRA120 240 Watt 2-Channel 2 Lunaire Air Handlers - 16,000 & 12,000 Btu’s (Non-Functional)1 Roku 31” Flat Panel TV1 Hisense 6,000 Btu Portable A/C Unit1 Bunker Up Portable Stainless-Steel Cooker1 Furuno Radar Sensor DRS4W1 RelxTime PH 050012 –2-Person Portable Inflatable Hot Tub1 Guest 12 Amp Intelligent Charging System1 Costway 10,000 Btu Portable A/C Unit1 Dining Retractable (Raise/Lower) Table (Inop)1 Wooden Ensign Staff w/ Ensign It is offered as a convenience by this broker/dealer to its clients and is
