Navy 83 Yacht
Navy 83 yacht originally built for the United States Navy as 83-foot cutters served during World War II and after the war ended. They were designed for off-shore ASW patrolboats. The present owner converted the boat into a luxury yacht in 2007 with new engines and machinery, electronics, etc. Must definitely be seen to be appreciated, their fit took place at Istanbul’s famous Tuzla shipyard where no expense was spared.
