November 2021 – Solaris Yachts, Listings Aplenty and Videos, Videos, Videos!

A king surveys his yacht filled kingdom…

The 2021 boat show season is now over, and after 2020 – which was boat show lite, we thoroughly enjoyed it! The Berthon Sales Team are now busy looking forward to the future, helping yacht owners prepare for their 2022 season – upgrading, servicing and/or selling their yachts.

The end of October saw the Berthon Sales Group further strengthen its relationship with Solaris Yachts. Berthon Scandinavia in Henån has now joined Berthon UK and Berthon USA as Solaris Yachts agents, promoting this fabulous brand in Sweden and Finland. Solaris Yachts of Italy build an exceptional range of performance cruising yachts from 40-111 feet, to designs by Javier Soto Acebal.

Berthon International has some outstanding yachts for sale, across sailing – bluewater, coastal and performance, to motor yachts – performance, semi displacement and also explorer yachts. We offer granular particulars, videos and of course viewings, both virtual and real time, to assist you with your yacht search.

The Berthon Book 2021-2022 XVII

1982 Trehard 90 Cutter Rig Sloop, DARK STAR OF LONDON, formerly known as BUZZY BEE, was totally rebuilt by Camper & Nicholson in 2000 and has been much updated since. Currently out of commission in the South of France, she has a fantastic 5-cabin plus crew layout and an under 24 metre load line, so would be great for charter. Her owner is offering a safety net for her purchaser so that commissioning her for sailing is less of a stress – ask us for the details.

Mystic 60, JUST JOIA is seriously fitted out for a Pacific cruise which was cancelled because of COVID-19. After cruising the Caribs, the Med and more, she is now with us in Lymington and has been substantially pitstopped with systems checks, servicing, repairs and polishing. JUST JOIA is now in sparkling condition for viewings and her new owners.

Oyster 575, DREAMER OF HAMBLE has joined our brokerage fleet. This gleaming Oyster yacht has been immaculately maintained and is now totally sorted for comfortable bluewater cruising, with plenty of space for owners, guests and crew.

An exceptional little ship, Vripack Research 2000, LUCKY JACK is now available for sale with us. She underwent an extensive refit in 2019 – in preparation for a world cruise that never happened. Now offered in plug and play condition for an adventure!

FPB 64, TOCCATA is offered for sale fresh from a refit at Hinckley in Southwest Harbor, Maine – USA. Built as IRON LADY, this iconic explorer yacht has seen two owners, two sea dogs, the Pacific, Panama, Nova Scotia the Caribs and everything in between. Go anywhere 4-wheel drive motor yachting at its best!

We are huge fans of FPB explorer yachts here at Berthon International and have enjoyed working with Steve and Linda Dashew for many years; they are family. Now in retirement, Steve still keeps an eye on the FPB market, and our Managing Director Sue Grant chats with him in a video on ‘Life after the FPB Programme’.

Finally, if you need something to look forward to, Boot Düsseldorf is just around the corner…
