1985 Custom Hitachi Zosen BUCKPASSER

Buckpasser recently contributed to AMIkids and is available for a 3-year lease with interest-free terms and a purchase option, to qualified individuals. Please inquire.

Buckpasser is a rare find by today’s standards. She is beautiful, functional, and economical, has more tender and crew capacity than many 150′ motoryachts and has been maintained to the highest standards.

Buckpasser was custom designed by Jack Hargrave for an experienced Florida yachting family as a mothership to support expedition style hunting and fishing excursions for weeks at a time. Her even more experienced second and current owner updated her to operate in a more traditional motor yacht role where she continues to serve as a luxury yacht which can support a multitude of water sports such as sailing, surfing, scuba diving, kiteboarding, kayaking, etc. Her detuned 565 hp Caterpillar 3508 engines are considered some of the most robust marine diesel engines ever built providing an effortless 4000+ miles of range.

An extensive list of improvements and upgrades is available upon request. It is safe to say that every aspect of Buckpasser from a mechanical, structural and cosmetic standpoint has been attended to in keeping with the highest standards of seaworthiness, safety and owner comfort.
