Motoryacht MARGENE, a 63ft / 19.2m luxury yacht, is now available for sale, meticulously crafted and launched by Nordlund. Delivered in 1984 to a knowledgeable yacht owner and recently refitted in 2022, this opulent vessel offers accommodation for up to 6 guests across 3 staterooms. The decision to bring MARGENE to market is a rare occurrence, reflecting the alignment of circumstances. Her owners were concluding a multi-year refit when family growth necessitated a larger yacht. The Nordlund Shipyard has just completed the latest refit, benefiting from extensive updates during several off-seasons.
Professionally managed and maintained by a full-time captain, MARGENE remains ageless and represents an immediate opportunity for purchase and enjoyment, thanks to the exceptional care provided by multiple owners. Discerning buyers will appreciate the detailed work carried out under the current and previous ownerships.
Key highlights include a complete interior refit in 2009 by Jon Pokela and Mary Flores, followed by a subsequent interior refresh in 2022/2023. Custom features such as underwater exhaust design by Ed Monk, engine rebuilds, electronic throttles, and a larger 10” hydraulic bow thruster in 1996 contribute to MARGENE’s exceptional performance. Recent upgrades in 2021, 2022, and 2023 encompass navigation, electrical, plumbing, freshwater, and mechanical systems. The yacht also features flybridge and transom davits, expanding storage options for toys.
The expansive salon, distinguished by its double-width doors from the aft cockpit, underwent a complete interior refit in 2009, followed by subsequent updates between 2021-2023. Meticulous detailing is evident, featuring custom varnished window trim, high-end Whisper Wall headliners, and new carpets. Inside, the salon showcases a specially crafted L-shaped sofa, bespoke club chairs, a hi/low TV entertainment center, and a forward barstool dining area.
Ascending two steps from the salon, the pilothouse introduces a wet bar, a galley equipped with modern amenities, and a banquette for dining. Access to the guest quarters, workshop, and engine room is facilitated from this central point. The forward-positioned owner’s cabin offers a walkaround queen-sized berth, ample storage, and an upgraded primary head with a custom tile shower.
Guest staterooms, reachable via a staircase off the galley, feature a VIP stateroom with an enlarged walk-in shower and a third cabin featuring over/under bunks. The guest head serves as both the day head and showcases a separate shower and stone counters.
Modernization extends to the pilothouse helm, where Garmin and Furuno touch screen electronics enhance navigational capabilities. A spacious c-shaped banquette in this area provides a comfortable setting for guests. The adjacent workshop space, a few steps down from the guest cabins, encompasses a workbench, washer/dryer, and easy access to the engine room.
MARGENE’s exterior features a deep well cockpit, swim step, varnished cap rails, and teak decks. The swim platform houses an Olson Davit for tender launching. The upper helm, with upgraded Garmin plotter screen, offers open seating and a modular layout. The engine room, spacious and well-maintained, houses Detroit Diesel 8V92TA engines with recent transmission rebuilds, twin Westerbeke generators, and various upgrades.
Designed by Ed Monk, MARGENE embodies stability and efficiency with her modified V-hull, soft chines, and FRP construction. The yacht presents a unique opportunity to own a timeless and well-maintained luxury vessel.
In conclusion, MARGENE, a 63ft Nordlund luxury yacht, represents a rare blend of timeless elegance and modern comfort. Crafted in 1984 and recently refitted in 2022, this vessel, managed by a dedicated captain, offers immediate enjoyment to discerning buyers. Noteworthy features, including a comprehensive interior refit, custom design elements, and recent system upgrades, showcase MARGENE’s commitment to excellence.
