Description

Arthur DeFever earned the title "godfather of the trawler yacht" by taking the rugged DNA of long-range commercial tuna clippers — vessels built to cross oceans and stay at sea for weeks — and translating it into a private passagemaker. Decades later, the DeFever Euro 52 stands as the modern expression of that legacy: a purpose-built, long-range cruiser with a craftsman-style fit & finish, loaded with offshore systems, and sized perfectly for two to four people to live aboard comfortably from the Great Loop to the Bahamas and beyond. 
Unlike semi-custom builds that come and go, the DeFever has a committed owners association (DeFever Cruisers), a proven lineage, and a market that holds value. The Euro model combines the classic DeFever seakeeping credentials with modern interior design and semi-displacement performance — cruising efficiently at 8 knots. This is the boat serious cruisers choose when they're ready to stop compromising between comfort and capability.
Boon Docks is a rare example of this model. Specially built as Seattle Yachts show room model. She includes an enhanced Galley with upgraded appliances, a full size refrigerator and expanded counter space. Her Twin John Deere engines have LOW hours and she is truly in 'turn-key' condition for her next owners - with a comprehensive offshore equipment package (including StarLink) already aboard.
