2001 Burger Flush Deck

When a Burger 85 Flush Deck like this 2001 model comes on the market, it's a significant event, and it’s no surprise she found a new owner quickly through Yacht Access. These Burgers are built like tanks with their aluminum hulls, offering a ride quality and longevity that newer production boats simply can't match. This particular 85-footer was a prime example of Burger's commitment to quality and customizability. For a buyer who missed out, understand that you're looking at a true custom yacht, not a semi-production model. Her 20-foot 6-inch beam provides an incredibly stable platform, whether you're cruising the ICW or anchored in the Exumas. The flush deck design maximizes interior volume, giving you a much larger feel than many 85-footers. While her bridge clearance might require some planning for certain ICW bridges, her draft and fuel capacity made her an ideal candidate for extended Bahamas cruising. The market for well-maintained, classic American-built yachts like this Burger remains incredibly strong, and they hold their value remarkably well.

The Burger 85 Flush Deck was perfectly suited for comfortable, long-range cruising in the Bahamas and along the East Coast, offering ample space for family and guests. Her robust construction and stable platform made her ideal for owners seeking reliability and a luxurious, private retreat.

This type of Burger typically attracts an experienced yacht owner, often a seasoned boater upgrading from a smaller motoryacht, who appreciates custom American craftsmanship and proven seakeeping. They are often looking for a vessel capable of extended cruising with a small crew or as an owner-operator, prioritizing comfort and quality over flash.
