Flipper - yacht for sale with Fraser Yachts

News now in from Neal Esterly and Tom Allen at Fraser Yachts that they’ve just listed the bank-owned 31.85m Flipper for sale.

Built by Crescent Custom Yachts in 2001, she was thoroughy upgraded in 2005-2007 and accommodates eight guests in a full beam master suite, VIP stateroom and a double and twin cabin. Twin 1800hp MTU emgines give Flipper a cruising range of 1,050 nautical miles.

Neal Esterly says, ‘This is a bank foreclosure which I feel is very rare in a pedigree boat, not an old and tired boat that has been run to death or has had some significant mishap. She shows well, has been well maintained and has a very nicely done interior that uses African Bubinga wood. She is priced aggressively for this year, size, layout and quality. She has to be one of the best buys in the US in this class of yacht.’
