Yacht Description
Refit, then play. GAIL FORCE II is an 80ft Hatteras motor yacht built in 2011 and refit in 2023, set up to sleep 8 guests in 4 cabins.
Stays steady at anchor. At-anchor stabilizers keep the boat calmer when you are parked up for lunch, swimming, or a long evening on board. Small thing. Big difference.
Two ways to water. You get a proper swim platform and an extra 27ft Grady White center console, so the group can split for quick runs and still be back for the same sunset plan.
Toys that get used. Wave runner, tube, snorkel gear, paddleboards, two kayaks, floating mats, and fishing gear are all onboard, so you can keep days simple: off the back, back on, repeat.
Comfort covered. Full air conditioning, Wi‑Fi, underwater lights for after-dark ambiance, plus a bow sunpad and BBQ round out a boat that is more about easy living than collecting “yacht moments” on a checklist.
