Silver Classic Motor Yacht 12.80 TSDY
Vision Doeve Brokers
Step aboard a unique floating legend: this classic motor yacht was built in 1935 at the renowned James Silver Shipyard in Scotland. During the Second World War, the vessel was requisitioned by the British government and was deployed, among other things, for the evacuation at Dunkirk, making her part of the iconic fleet of “Little Ships”. This remarkable history makes the vessel not only a visual delight, but also a valuable piece of maritime heritage. Since Jahr 2018, the yacht has been located in the Netherlands, where it has been lovingly maintained. We are now looking for a new owner: an enthusiast with an eye for classic lines and historical charm, ready to cherish this lady and, where necessary, restore her. Among other things, the cockpit floor and the paintwork require attention. The asking price is based on this. The layout is as follows: forward cabin with bunk beds, bulkhead with door, toilet room on port side, door, second cabin with a double bed on port side, stairs to wheelhouse with two side doors, steering position on port side, 2 seats, stairs aft to salon with two longitudinal benches, bathroom to port, galley to starboard with stairs to cockpit. With her elegant classic lines and rich history, this motor yacht is a true eye-catcher on the water. Ideal for lovers of authentic vessels seeking character, story and style.
