German Frers - Custom Design for sale

A rare opportunity to purchase a serious cruising yacht capable of worldwide adventures. This German Frers 65' is an aluminium prototype of the Swan 651, and built in 1982 under ABS and RINA certificates. Rigged as a cutter, she is as fast as she is seaworthy and capable of taking you into the deepest of ocean territories. Combined with the well laid out and comfortable accommodation makes 'Paradise' eminently suitable to continue her current role commercially or as a private yacht for those who wish to stretch their cruising legs. Fitted out for exploration in the higher latitudes, the current owners have cruised extensively in the Southern Ocean as an expedition/charter yacht. 'Paradise' now awaits her next adventure.
