2022 Winter Custom Sport fish

As a senior broker at Yacht Access for 45 years, I can tell you that the 2022 63ft Winter Custom Sportfish was a prime example of why these boats command such respect. When this one came to market, it generated significant buzz, and for good reason. Built with a wood hull, she offered that legendary soft ride and robust construction custom builders are known for, a stark contrast to many production fiberglass boats. This particular Winter Custom was designed for serious offshore work, boasting a cockpit large enough to handle multiple anglers and a full spread of tackle, making it ideal for tournament fishing in places like the Florida Keys or the Bahamas. Her custom build meant optimized performance and an interior tailored for comfort during extended trips, not just day runs. The asking price of $5,595,000 and subsequent sale at $4,754,000 reflected her bespoke quality and the strong demand for top-tier custom sportfish yachts. A buyer who missed this opportunity should understand that a Winter Custom isn't just a boat; it's a meticulously crafted fishing machine built to excel in the most demanding conditions, offering a blend of speed, stability, and fishability that few others can match. Keep an eye on Yacht Access listings for similar custom builds.

This 63ft Winter Custom Sportfish was perfectly suited for serious tournament sportfishing out of South Florida, with the range and capability for extended trips to the Bahamas or even the Caribbean. Her design prioritized offshore performance and a comfortable, yet functional, platform for chasing big game.

The typical buyer for a custom sportfish like this Winter Custom is an experienced yachtsman, often a passionate angler, upgrading from a smaller custom or production sportfish. They seek uncompromising performance, bespoke quality, and a vessel capable of competing at the highest levels of sportfishing, often with a professional captain and crew.
