1959 Custom J.J Schiffswerft

Beirut, Lebanon

$2,800,000

The sister vessel to M/Y Christina ‘O', M/Y Blue Dawn is a classic yacht for sale with an impeccable pedigree. This 62.06m motor yacht was launched in 1959 by German shipyard J.J. Sietas Schiffswerft. A full refit in 2004 transformed her into a private yacht capable of holding large-scale events. She has the capacity to host more than 100 guests at sea for events such as corporate functions, weddings and receptions. This increases to 300+ for functions held alongside in port.

Currently the yacht can sleep up to ten guests in five double cabins, but this could be increased to 18 guests in nine double cabins, as highlighted in the refit pictures below. The yacht can also accommodate a crew of 11.

M/Y Blue Dawn has a top speed of 16 knots and a cruising range of 6200 nautical miles. She can be easily modified to enable world cruising itineraries for potential Owners looking to explore remote destinations.

M/Y Blue Dawn is seriously for sale with an asking price of $3,200,000. All offers will be considered by the Owner.
