The 29m (95ft) motor yacht FLY BOYS, from the successful Hargrave 95 series, was constructed in GRP by American shipyard Hargrave Custom Yachts and delivered in 2002 with in-house exterior styling and naval architecture. She had a full repaint in 2014 and a comprehensive interior refit in 2015 courtesy of Yacht Interiors by Shelley including new custom furnishings, soft goods, carpeting, upgraded state-of-the-art AV and more. Today she presents in excellent condition.
With a cruising speed of 19 knots and shallow draft, she is perfect for island hopping
A beam of 6.1m (20ft) gives her an interior volume of 148GT, all cleverly deployed to optimise guest enjoyment, and a draft of 1.8m (5.9ft) allows her to explore ports and anchorages off limits to larger yachts. With twin 1,400hp Caterpillar diesel engines giving her a top speed of 23 knots and a maximum range of 2,000nm, she is tailor-made for island hopping in Florida and The Bahamas and Naiad zero speed stabilisers ensure guest comfort at anchor.
Looking aft on the sun deck, from the flybridge to the lounge and the boat deck aft
A large sun deck has a flybridge forward, J-shaped seating around tables for open air dining and a sit-up bar, with a boat deck aft for her 4.6m (15ft) Novurania tender and two Sea-Doos and a deck crane for launching.
Open air dining and entertaining space on the main deck aft
Steps starboard aft lead down to the main deck aft where there is more open air dining partially shaded by the overhang.
Walkaround sidedecks lead to a double sunpad forward
Walkaround sidedecks lead forward either side to a double sunpad on the foredeck and steps either side lead down to the swim platform.
The well-lit main saloon with dining forward
The main saloon is open plan with a formal dining area forward and lounge area aft with plenty of natural light through large picture windows.
Panoramic views in this family kitchen-diner
A feature of the yacht is her large family-style galley forward of the main saloon. The high-gloss cherry wood galley features an oversized island and cosy C-shaped banquette seating surrounded by 180-degree windows and panoramic views.
The full-beam main deck owner's suite on the lower deck
On the lower deck you will find accommodation for 10 guests in four spacious cabins. The full beam master cabin features his and hers en suite bathrooms connected by a large glass walk-in shower. A full beam VIP cabin can be found forward with a queen bed and en suite bathrooms. Two additional twin cabins each have a pullman berth and an en suite bathroom.
Naiad zero speed stabilisers keep her on an even keel
