Comments and Exclusions
Broker Comments:

Entering the salon from the aft deck you realize that the luxury of a large Motoryacht is not compromised on this Buddy Davis Sportfisherman. To starboard aft is an entertainment center with oversized wide screen television. Comfortable sofas to port and starboard in the salon provide for ample seating for all guests. Forward of the starboard sofa is the spiral stairway leading to the enclosed flybridge.

Forward of the salon step-up to a full galley open to the salon, with swivel bar stools at the galley countertop and a dinette and settee to port. Forward of the galley is the laundry, large commercial freezer, storage lockers, pantry and captains quarters. Just forward of the galley dinette is a stairway leading below deck to a full beam master stateroom aft, double guest staterooms port and starboard just forward of the master stateroom and a VIP queen stateroom forward in the bow. All staterooms have full ensuite heads.

The large enclosed flybridge deck is accessed from the spiral stairway in the main salon. This area includes a fully equipped helm station with state-of-the-art electronics and navigation equipment. Aft of the helm station is a large area for relaxing and entertaining and includes a wet bar with icemaker and large screen television. Exiting the bridge deck aft is an outside area with full control station to starboard, seating to port and center ladder access to the tuna tower and upper tower control station.

Exiting the main salon to the aft mezzanine there is a full head with head shower and sink to starboard and seating with a custom freezer below to port. Stairs lead down to the large cockpit which is fully equipped for sportfishing and features a large Pompanette fighting chair. A centerline door forward in the cockpit leads down to the engine room. Teak caprails, teak decks and a teak transom put the final touches to this magnificent one of a kind sportfisherman.
