INTRODUCTION
AVENTURER is currently offered as a 3-year lease-to-purchase option with zero interest. Aventurer is an exceptional 85' Dutch-built Jongert motor yacht, meticulously constructed in 1986 to German Lloyd's classification. Her build incorporated more than 40,000 man-hours dedicated to the interior alone. She was engineered with the systems and redundancies typically found on much larger yachts and has completed both Atlantic and Pacific crossings under her own power. Aventurer is highly versatile, comfortably accommodating up to 10 guests in four staterooms, with separate crew quarters ensuring privacy. A media room converts to a queen berth for additional guests or crew. Uncommon for a yacht of her size, she offers a generous aft deck with seating for 12, a full bar, a day head, and an expansive flybridge. Featuring transatlantic range, a steel hull, aluminum superstructure, and extensive system redundancies, Aventurer is a proven long-range voyager. She is equally well-suited for short coastal cruises, extended passage-making, and exceptional entertaining. Maintained with an open checkbook through multiple refits, Aventurer meets modern standards while retaining her refined Dutch heritage. Most notably, a $2 million “bow-to-stern” refit, completed in late 2021, included a comprehensive redesign of both the interior and exterior spaces, elevating her to an exceptional level of luxury and sophistication. Blending classic Dutch pedigree with modern comforts and premium equipment, she represents true yachting excellence and must be seen to be fully appreciated.

ACCOMMODATION

The yacht features a spacious full-beam Owner’s stateroom, complemented by three additional guest staterooms, providing flexible sleeping arrangements for family and guests. A dedicated media room further enhances onboard living and converts to a queen berth, allowing for additional guest accommodations when needed. Separate crew quarters for two ensure privacy and efficient service, with accommodations discreetly arranged away from guest areas. This thoughtfully designed layout delivers exceptional flexibility, comfort, and functionality, making Aventurer well-suited for extended cruising or charter operations.

RECENT IMPROVEMENTS
Flybridge (2021–2024) The flybridge was fully refurbished as part of the 2021 refit. At the helm, the expansive flybridge features four comfortable Todd Captain’s chairs, a built-in space for a Yeti cooler, and state-of-the-art navigation electronics mounted on a custom teak helm pod, along with a JL Audio sound system. The bimini top was replaced in 2024. Moving aft, there are four lounge chairs for enjoying time in the sun. Further aft are two built-in seating areas, each with its own custom teak table. Covering the aft section of the flybridge is a large expandable and retractable TUUCI umbrella, bolted directly into the yacht’s aluminum superstructure. Continuing aft is a grill station equipped with a custom butler’s teak table, storage cabinets, and a large freezer for provisions during extended cruising. Adjacent to the grill area is the 20 ft tender storage space, surrounded by ample room for additional toys. The tender is serviced by a 2,000 lb. lift, which was rebuilt in 2021. Aft Deck The aft deck was thoughtfully redesigned during the 2021 refit and features a full wet bar, a day head, and a stairwell leading to the flybridge. The day head is located beneath the stairwell and includes a wash sink and vanity. The bar is outfitted with custom teak cabinetry, a liquor closet, an ice maker, a sink, and a wine fridge. A beautiful custom teak dining table comfortably seats 12 guests. The aft deck is further enhanced by elegant white and blue dimmable lighting and a JL Audio sound system with Fusion control. Day head, ice maker, (x2) wine fridges, sink, bar closet, trash can, stereo system. Galley The galley was completely redesigned in 2021, featuring all-new white countertops and a custom six-person dining table. The space includes all the creature comforts of a luxury home, including a fuel-burning stove. Hull & Deck The hull sides were fully repainted Flag Blue in 2020. During the comprehensive 2021 refit, the bottom was sandblasted and recoated with new bottom paint, the flybridge tender deck received new paint and non-skid, and interior paneling was refreshed and repainted white. Additional bottom paint coatings were applied in 2023 and again in 11/2024. Construction Aventurer underwent a hull ultrasound during her yard period in 03/2024, with results confirming that hull thickness remains in excellent condition. The hull is constructed with 8mm welded steel keel plating, 6mm and 8mm welded steel bottom plating, and 5mm topside plating. Hull framing consists of 180mm x 80mm x 8mm bottom longitudinal, 75mm x 8mm topside longitudinal, and 75mm x 8mm transverse framing on 400mm centers, with 8mm stringers welded to the frames. Integral tanks within the hull envelope contribute additional structural integrity. The vessel features five watertight bulkheads. The main deck is constructed of 5mm welded steel plate with 120mm x 80mm x 8mm longitudinal framing and 75mm x 8mm transverse framing.
