Major Refit & Recent Upgrades
This Portofino 53 has benefited from a substantial recent refit, making it one of the best-presented examples currently available. Significant investment has been made to ensure the yacht is mechanically reliable, comfortable, and ready for immediate cruising.
Highlights include:
Both main engines are professionally rebuilt, providing exceptional reliability and peace of mind for the next owner.
New air conditioning units installed throughout, replacing the original systems to deliver efficient and dependable climate control.
Generator comprehensively serviced, ensuring reliable onboard power for extended cruising.
All exterior cushions were replaced, giving the yacht a fresh, modern appearance and enhancing onboard comfort.
Numerous additional servicing and maintenance items were completed across the vessel, reflecting meticulous ownership and a no-expense-spared approach to upkeep.
This extensive program of upgrades means the new owner can step aboard with confidence, knowing that many of the yacht’s major mechanical and cosmetic items have already been addressed. It represents exceptional value compared with similar Portofino 53s that may still require significant investment after purchase.
This is a genuine turn-key yacht, fully prepared for immediate cruising throughout Thailand and Southeast Asia.
The Portofino 53 also features Sunseeker’s extremely aggressive chine design. She carries her wide, down-turned chines well forward, which, even before you employ the trim tabs, controls lateral stability (at rest and underway) and throws water and spray down and away from the hull for a dry ride. Her 20,000kg displacement also aids the ride, because the sharp bow slices through swells cleanly without banging.
The sleeping arrangements on the 53 allow eight people to stay overnight (if the optional convertible lounge is fitted) in luxurious comfort. The forward owner’s stateroom features its own en-suite, while the two guest cabins share the day head.
Both bathrooms are quite spacious and fully featured, with all your modern conveniences.
There are twin bunks in the starboard cabin, while the slightly larger port stateroom features a six-foot-plus ceiling and a full-sized double bed. All the staterooms feature cedar-lined wardrobes, so your clothes will always smell fresh, and moths will never be a problem.
Her ride and handling are among the best in her class, and the workmanship used during her construction is obvious wherever you look. With a sleeping capacity of up to eight adults, this boat has everything to please anyone in the market for a big 53-footer.
Immaculately presented. This yacht is well worth a look to purchase.
