DeFever 65 Pilothouse Motor Yacht Great liveaboard or put back into charter Just Listed

1993 65ft DeFever Motor Yacht
Priced reduced for a quick sale.
As a 30+ year old boat she is due for some cosmetic updates if aesthetics are the most inportant thins for you. Where some of the veneer is peeling in sections or water marks from where a porthole has been left open but is priced well below any defever of this size, so anyone wanting to view please note this is not a bargaining point as it has already been factored into the price. Structurally and mechanically she is great and is still in use a few times a month.

This 65ft defever model offers the space and comfort of an apartment on the water while still being manageable enough to operate single-handed when required.

Massive volume coastal cruiser and exceptional liveaboard with extensive upgrades throughout. Comfortably suited for a family of 4 with generous indoor and outdoor living space.
