Ekman 75

Vendor open to trade or creative deal structures

Bucket List is currently working through her summer charter program, with pre-purchase and commercial survey information available for serious buyers. This is an exceptional opportunity for a sole owner or syndicate to operate a proven commercial vessel in New Zealand, then take advantage of South Pacific cruising during the winter season.

Designed by Steve Ekman and proudly built in New Zealand by Fiberglass Concepts, Bucket List is a 75 ft power catamaran that delivers the perfect balance of comfort, performance, and commercial capability. Four spacious decks, generous living zones, and a commanding upper helm make her ideal for entertaining, long-range cruising, or charter operation.

With just two owners since launch and a complete service history, this vessel has been meticulously maintained and continually upgraded, her 2024 full repaint, new Flexi Teak decks, and mechanical overhauls have lifted her into a class of her own. Surveyed and certified for commercial operation to 50 nm and holding current Cat 1 status, she's as capable offshore as she is refined at anchor.

With forward charter bookings into 2026 and offshore charter opportunities actively being explored, there is genuine potential for cash flow under an owner / full-time skipper arrangement. Whether you're looking for a serious adventure platform, a commercial charter asset, or a hybrid of both, Bucket List delivers rare flexibility; an offshore adventure machine that works as hard as it plays.
