Step aboard KRAKEN, a custom 2002 Bruce Roberts 64 steel bluewater cruising yacht built for strength, volume, serviceability, and serious offshore potential. Designed by Bruce Roberts-Goodson, the Roberts 64 design family has long appealed to passagemakers, liveaboards, and owners looking for a substantial offshore platform with the flexibility of a custom build. KRAKEN brings that concept together in a heavy-displacement steel hull with a protected center cockpit, cutter rig, in-boom furling main, three private staterooms, three heads, and an interior that feels far more spacious than many production yachts in this size range. Her steel construction is central to the story. For long-range cruising and remote voyaging, steel remains valued for impact resistance, repairability, and overall confidence offshore. Combined with a deep protected cockpit, substantial aft deck, skeg-style offshore concept, and generous displacement, KRAKEN has the core attributes serious voyagers look for in a custom long-range cruising yacht. Below deck, KRAKEN is defined by volume and warmth. The interior features custom cherry and maple woodwork, maple sole work completed by Tiara Yachts, a large central saloon, substantial navigation station, walk-through galley, full-size appliances, granite countertops, and three private cabins. The full-beam aft ownerโ€™s stateroom offers true liveaboard comfort, while the forward VIP and midship guest cabin give the yacht excellent flexibility for family, guests, crew, or extended cruising. Her equipment includes a newer Perkins 6.354 110 HP diesel with very low reported hours, Garmin GPSmap 7215 chartplotter, Garmin radar, Raymarine ST60+ sailing instruments, Raymarine ST6002 autopilot, Lewmar bow thruster, solar panels, Air Breeze wind generator, Maxwell 3500 windlass, substantial ground tackle, and a full Isinglass cockpit enclosure. KRAKEN is not a simple production cruiser, and she is best suited for a knowledgeable buyer who understands custom yachts and values strength, space, offshore capability, and the opportunity to continue developing a serious voyaging platform. For the right owner, she offers a rare combination of steel construction, bluewater design pedigree, remarkable interior volume, and liveaboard comfort.

Step aboard ADIRA, a rare U.S. market 2011 Prestige 60 offering flagship Prestige volume, Volvo IPS maneuverability, hydraulic swim platform, crew quarters, and major 2026 updates. Designed by the Garroni design team with a Michael Peters hull form developed around Volvo IPS propulsion, the Prestige 60 delivers an exceptional blend of space, efficiency, shallow draft, and owner-friendly handling. With twin Volvo Penta D11 / IPS900 engines rated at 700 HP each, joystick control, and fully updated IPS drives completed in May 2026, ADIRA is especially well suited for South Florida, the Bahamas, the Intracoastal Waterway, and East Coast cruising. Her layout is one of the strongest arguments for the Prestige 60. The aft galley connects directly to the cockpit through a compound sliding door, creating the indoor/outdoor flow that has become a hallmark of modern Prestige design. The main salon is bright, open, and social, with large windows, opposing settees, excellent headroom, and a compact lower helm forward to starboard. Below, ADIRA offers a proper three-stateroom guest layout plus private aft crew quarters. The full-beam master stateroom features a king berth, large hull windows, settee, generous storage, and private head. The forward VIP is large enough to feel like a second master, while the twin guest cabin and separate crew quarters add the flexibility needed for family cruising, guests, captain use, storage, or charter-style operation. On deck, ADIRA is built for entertaining and practical cruising. The flybridge includes a commanding helm, new Raymarine Axiom electronics package, grill, sink, seating, and sunning space. The cockpit connects easily to the galley, the hydraulic swim platform simplifies tender handling and water access, and the cockpit IPS docking station adds control where it matters most. For a buyer looking at 55 to 65 foot flybridge motor yachts, ADIRA delivers a lot of yacht for the money: IPS propulsion, joystick control, shallow draft, four-cabin flexibility including crew, strong Bahamas capability, major recent drive service, modernized flybridge electronics, and the bright contemporary interior that Prestige does so well.

Step aboard VIVERE, a 2011 Southerly 57RS Raised Saloon cutter designed by Ed Dubois and built by Northshore Yachts in the United Kingdom. As the flagship of the Southerly range, the 57RS was created for owners who want serious offshore capability, elegant raised-saloon living, and the freedom to explore shallow cruising grounds that most yachts of this size simply cannot reach. With her hydraulic swing keel, VIVERE draws approximately 4โ€™ with the keel raised and 10โ€™9โ€ with the keel fully deployed, giving her remarkable versatility: shoal-draft access for the Bahamas, ICW, rivers, and tucked-away harbors, plus deep-keel windward performance offshore. Twin rudders, a substantial grounding plate, bow and stern thrusters, powered sail handling, and a secure aft cockpit make her unusually capable and manageable for shorthanded cruising. Below deck, VIVERE features a bright and beautifully appointed Rhoades Young interior with Crown Cut teak joinery, Duboisโ€™ signature teardrop windows, a commanding Raised Saloon, three staterooms, two heads, and a full-beam forward ownerโ€™s suite. She feels far more like a small custom yacht than a conventional production cruiser under 60 feet. VIVERE is also meaningfully updated, including a Yanmar 4LV150 diesel, Lithionics lithium house battery system, 800 W solar array, Starlink, Schenker watermaker, updated B&G Zeus electronics, rebuilt EmpirBus system, recent drivetrain improvements, and a new Code Zero. For a buyer looking for bluewater performance, shallow-water freedom, and refined liveaboard comfort, VIVERE is one of the most compelling yachts in the sub-60-foot market.

Step aboard SHAIMA, a 2017 Hylas 63 with a story few yachts can match. Over the past nine years, SHAIMA has voyaged more than 80,000 nautical miles, carrying her owners across oceans, through remote anchorages, and around the world with the confidence, comfort, and capability that have made Hylas one of the most respected names in bluewater sailing. Designed by German Frers and built by Hylas Yachts, the Hylas 63 is a true raised saloon offshore cruiser, combining powerful sailing performance with a beautifully appointed interior, protected center cockpit, serious passagemaking systems, and the volume needed for extended life aboard. SHAIMA is not a yacht that merely promises offshore capability โ€” she has proven it, mile after mile, across nearly a decade of world voyaging. Her story is one of serious ownership, thoughtful preparation, and continuous investment. Most notably, SHAIMA is the only known Hylas to have returned to the Hylas yard in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, for a major refit, a rare and meaningful chapter in her history that speaks directly to the level of care she has received. Returning to the original builder for this work is a significant distinction and further reinforces her pedigree within the Hylas fleet. Today, SHAIMA represents an exceptional opportunity for a buyer seeking a proven, modern, large bluewater cruising yacht with real-world experience behind her. Her 80,000-mile voyaging history, Hylas build quality, Frers design, substantial refit background, and elegant raised saloon layout make her a compelling choice for owners looking to continue the adventure without starting from scratch.

Step aboard WINDHORSE, a 2003 Hylas 49 designed by Sparkman & Stephens and built by Queen Long Marine. Long regarded as one of the most sought-after Hylas designs, the Hylas 49 blends serious offshore capability, graceful center cockpit styling, and a spacious three-cabin interior that has made the model a favorite among bluewater cruising sailors. WINDHORSE is being offered for the first time on the brokerage market and has seen remarkably light use. Her original owner kept her in the Caribbean, typically using her only three months per year, with a ten-year period during which she remained covered and unused. Following that layup, she was fully serviced and has continued to be lightly enjoyed on a seasonal basis. Her condition is immediately evident aboard, especially in the interior teakwork, teak and holly sole, blue Ultrasuede upholstery, custom inlaid dining table, and traditional Hylas joinery. She offers the preferred three-cabin layout with a spacious aft master suite, VIP forward cabin, third cabin with over/under berths, two heads, passageway galley, forward-facing navigation station, and excellent storage throughout.
