DESCRIPTION

Beautifully restored Ed Monk designed 1953 De Vries Lentsch 68 Motoryacht.

Ed Monk was a famous Naval Architect who designed many boats over the years. This one was built in the G. De Vries Lentsch yard in Amsterdam, Holland before Feadship existed.

The previous owner replaced 70% of the steel on the hull (at a cost of around $500k.) The current owner acquired the vessel around 2005. He added the flybridge and extended the salon, and then refurbished the interior. It's gorgeous!

Rebuilt engines

New shafts

Props balanced

2 x generators

Watermaker

Bow-thruster

Tender

Update, May 2019: Boat hauled at The Boatyard for bottom paint etc. At this time, an ultra-sound inspection was made of the bottom. The steel is in good shape.

Note: I've had several inquiries about headroom. I am 6' tall, so if you watch the walk-thorugh video, you should get an idea. It's about 6' 3" in the salon, about 6' in the aft cabin.

Forward is a crew cabin with single beds to port and starboard, and an en suite head.

Steps down from the dining room lead to the guest quarters with one cabin with a double bed and head opposite with separate shower stall, WC, and sink.
