THANKS BUDS
About
Here is your opportunity to own a product of one of the most renowned shipyards in the world at an incredible price. Seeing this 87 Feadship sportfish in person, even 39 years after construction, is truly amazing, boasting features and quality that we still do not see in production builds today. THANKS BUDS remains an icon in yachting circles. She was built as the second of two GALLANT LADY Feadship Sportfisherman. At the time of her build, no larger pedigree “Yacht Fisherman” was on the water. While the market has dictated newer, larger, and faster Sportfisherman, none have the class, grace, or quality of a Feadship. Largely, in fact, only systems have been upgraded. Her original Feadship features remain.
Your chance to own an icon.
NOTE: In October of 2024, THANKS BUDS was donated to a marine-oriented charity. As such, she can only be leased for 36 months with a purchase option after the lease.
