Broker Remarks

A particularly well-presented Pershing 65 HT combining the unmistakable performance and styling of the classic Pershing generation with an extensive programme of recent maintenance and upgrades.

Built by the Ferretti Group and powered by twin 1,500 HP MTU V12 engines coupled to Arneson Surface Drives, she offers the performance for which Pershing became renowned, with a reported top speed of approximately 45 knots.

What distinguishes this particular example is her presentation and the investment made by her current owner. The yacht benefits from recent MTU maintenance, a replacement Kohler 13 kVA generator, upgraded Raymarine navigation electronics, newer batteries, an electrical and LED lighting retrofit, recently renewed exterior upholstery and current maintenance to the gearboxes.

Her accommodation comprises three guest cabins for six, each with en-suite toilets, plus separate crew accommodation. The spacious saloon, fully equipped galley and generous exterior living areas make her equally suited to fast Mediterranean cruising and extended stays aboard.

Having personally inspected the yacht, Network Yacht Brokers Barcelona considers her interior presentation particularly impressive for a yacht of this age. The high-gloss joinery, light upholstery and upgraded lighting create a remarkably fresh and contemporary atmosphere.

EU VAT paid, Polish-registered, and lying in the Barcelona area.

Invoices and supporting documentation for significant recent maintenance are available.
