LAYOUT & ACCOMMODATIONS
CARE BEAR's interior reflects her working-vessel purpose. The existing arrangement includes three guest cabins
below, three heads and a laundry room, plus a lower crew stateroom configured with four bunks. The former master
cabin is presently used for additional storage in support of the vessel's current mission. On the main deck are a
second crew stateroom, lounge and head, while a captain's cabin is located aft of the pilothouse with its own head
and outside shower. The stainless-steel galley is fitted with a Garland commercial stove and Samsung refrigerator. The
arrangement is practical, serviceable and adaptable rather than decorative - consistent with the vessel's commercial
and expedition character.
REFIT, SURVEY & AVAILABLE DOCUMENTATION
The owner reports an approximately $700,000 refit at Fairhaven Shipyard in Massachusetts, and an ultrasonic steelhull
survey was performed in 2021. CARE BEAR is a USCG documented vessel. HMY has access to a meaningful
package of vessel information and supporting records and is prepared to share available documentation with qualified
interested parties as appropriate. Buyers should independently verify the scope, dates and current status of refit,
survey, documentation and equipment during due diligence.
A PLATFORM WITH A PROVEN HISTORY
CARE BEAR's history is the strongest evidence of what makes her different. As CHAGOS, she crossed the Atlantic and
supported a specialized West African fishing program. As CARE BEAR, she has been put to work in humanitarian relief.
For a buyer who values commercial construction, working space, serviceability and the freedom to configure a vessel
around a mission, CARE BEAR offers a distinctive starting point for fishing, diving, exploration, research, adventure
travel, relief work, commercial support or expedition conversion.
