Broker Overview

This 1994 Lazzara 76 Open Bridge represents a significant opportunity for a buyer seeking a well-built, large-volume yacht at a competitive price point. Lazzara established its reputation for quality with this model, known for robust fiberglass construction and a thoughtful blend of elegance and practicality. At 76 feet, 'YOLO' offers substantial interior and exterior spaces, making it suitable for extended cruising or as a comfortable liveaboard. The twin MTU 12V183 engines, each rated at 1150HP, provide reliable and capable power, a critical factor for a vessel of this size and vintage. While a 1994 yacht will naturally require ongoing maintenance, the asking price of $599,000 in Fort Lauderdale positions this Lazzara as a compelling value proposition in today's market. Its 'Open Bridge' design enhances the connection to the water, a desirable feature for many. We recommend a thorough inspection to assess the extent of past maintenance and upgrades, particularly regarding the engines, generators, and major systems, to fully understand its long-term operational costs.

Expert Review

The Lazzara 76 is a testament to sound American yacht building from the 1990s. These vessels are known for their solid fiberglass hulls, offering a comfortable and stable ride in varying sea conditions. Owners generally report good sea-keeping abilities for a yacht of its type. The MTU 12V183 engines are workhorses, but their age dictates a thorough engine survey, including oil analysis and a load test, to ascertain their remaining service life and maintenance history. Electrics and plumbing, while robust for their era, will likely show their age and should be meticulously inspected. For its asking price, this Lazzara offers significant square footage and capability. Comparable alternatives might include certain Hatteras or Viking models from the same period, though the Lazzara often stands out for its interior finish. A pre-purchase survey is paramount, focusing on structural integrity, engine health, and the condition of all major systems to ensure a clear understanding of any deferred maintenance.
