Yellowfin boats already have the reputation of being one of the best built center console yachts built today. But I dare say that this Yellowfin is especially well outfit because she is fully loaded with upgrades and features. She was originally featured as a new boat for the factory at a boat show so, aside from making sure that there were no spaces that weren't filled with some type of electronic, this boat was also painted lighting Yellowfin yellow and she turned out to be a real head-turner!

As soon as you step aboard the 56' Carver Yacht "Queen Larina" you can tell that this yacht was lovingly maintained from the start because she is in such good condition. She is a fresh water boat (cruising on Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri) and ready to take her next owner on the water with only 325 hours on her twin Volvo diesel engines. Carver yachts are extremely popular and, although they handle equally as well in salt water, Carver yachts are often found on Lakes... Read More

Yachts are essentially self-sufficient mansions at sea. With a typical layout with four guest suites and three crew quarters with two galleys and 7 heads, yachts can be considered six bedroom condos at sea. Yet, unlike your beach house, one month your yacht may be in Spain and the next you may be in Florida and how, then, does the yacht handle the conversion in power? Well, yachts can be outfitted with transforming units that enable vessels to plug into 50 hertz or 60 hertz of shore side power. Some examples... Read More

The world of yachting is vast and can be confusing. There is a lot of unique terminology to help make sense out of all the unique aspects and things around yachts. As the yachts get larger, and especially when owners start to consider chartering their yacht, safety classifications become increasingly important when choosing your next yacht. There are lots of classifications from around the world. Lloyd's of London has a safety classification that yachts can obtain. Two of the most popular and recognized standards of safety include the RINA... Read More

Sitting alongside famous Las Olas Blvd. in Fort Lauderdale, FL, this 78' Marlow yacht must have become one of the most photographed yachts ever! She is a real head-turner, partially thanks to her lapstrake hull and Portuguese style forward deck. The first time I stepped into the saloon of this yacht I was impressed by the comfortable atmosphere that is generated by all the wood finish. After spending some time on board, I grew to love the galley, from which you can see the entire main deck, and how... Read More

There are countless different yachts cruising the seas around the world and each one seems to manage to be different. After years of selling yachts, I still can have two identical yachts at the docks behind my office, next to one another, and the light switches aren't in the same place! Alongside the complexity of the yachts, that we enjoy so much, is the attention to detail and the best way to "keep our ducks in a line" is to have our own brand of yachting terminology....

When young C.N. “Connie” Ray founded Sea Ray Boats in 1959, he began a tradition of innovation and advanced design that would eventually redefine the face of the yachting industry. Ray's dealer-based approach to growing his company was unique in the boat building industry, but it was Sea Ray's 1975 Sundancer line and its impact on powerboat styles that earned the company its prominent place in the history of the yachting world. Sea Ray has grown from modest beginnings to become the largest manufacturer of superior quality... Read More

With the recent sale of the 101' Hargrave yacht "King Baby," and with all the attention that Hargrave yachts have been receiving at our displays in boat shows, it is a matter of time until the other Hargrave Yachts that we have for sale have found their next owners as well. Here are a selection of Hargrave yachts that we currently have available: Freedom R is a 108' Hargrave raised-pilothouse motor-yacht with a more traditional yacht profile and an interior that is uniquely different in style, arrangement and...
