With the dawning of boat show season upon us, Burgess has announced the sale of the 47m ketch sailing yacht Aquarius, a 1990 Perini Navi build, its fleet for the 2016 Cannes Yachting Festival and the relocation of its London office to Regent Street.

Aquarius has been sold with Henry Craven-Smith of Burgess representing the seller and Dirk Johnson of Perini Navi USA introducing the buyer. At the time of the sale, she was on the market for $9.75 million.

The ketch sailing yacht was designed by the Italian yard’s in-house design team and constructed with a steel hull and an aluminium superstructure at its facility in Viareggio, in 1990.

London-based Colefax & Fowler is responsible for the nautical-themed interior, which apportions guest accommodation for 10 over a cabin configuration of two doubles and two twins with additional Pullman berths.

Burgess has also announced its five-yacht sales fleet for the 2016 Cannes Yachting Festival. This includes a 49.9m Mangusta 165, built by Overmarine in 2007 for out-and-out performance; she has a top speed of 37 knots and a cruising speed of 26 knots. She is for sale at €13.95 million and is also for charter with Burgess for €150,000 per week.

Va Bene will also be in attendance at the show. The 47.2m motoryacht was built by Kees Cornelissen in 1992 and is for sale with Burgess at €13.67 million and for charter at €140,000 per week. She underwent an extensive refit at Pendennis in 2007 and had an interior refresh in 2015, leaving her in pristine condition for re-sale.

Showcasing a fine collaborative effort by European Designers, Cor D. Rover and Luca Dini, the 41m motoryacht Nameless, built by Mondomarine in 2013, is available for sale at €12.5 million and for charter at €133,000 per week.

The 36.6m motoryacht Crystal, built by Moonen in 2015, is for sale at €14.95 million. Despite being delivered, her current owners have never sailed her, making her a rare proposition on the re-sale market.

The 37m motoryacht Khaleesi is fresh from an extensive 2016 refit, including an engine overhaul, a repaint and an interior refresh. The 1996 Perini Navi build is on the market for €4.95 million.
