Broker Overview

This 2002 President 100 Motor Yacht, 'Glen Ellen', represents a compelling opportunity in the large fiberglass motor yacht market, especially for a buyer prioritizing robust mechanicals and significant recent investment. At 100 feet, she offers substantial volume and accommodation with four cabins and four heads, making her suitable for extended cruising or as a private yacht for a large family or entertaining. The most critical aspect of this vessel's current offering is the extensive preventative maintenance undertaken by the current owner. Both Caterpillar 3412E main engines have been rebuilt, the generators replaced, and the stabilizer fins serviced. These are not minor cosmetic updates, but substantial investments that directly address common concerns with yachts of this vintage. While the listing doesn't detail interior styling, the focus on mechanical readiness suggests a practical owner. Located in Fort Lauderdale, she is readily accessible for inspection. For a buyer seeking a large, capable motor yacht with a significant portion of the heavy lifting already completed, 'Glen Ellen' warrants serious consideration. Her asking price, coupled with the recent mechanical work, positions her as a strong value proposition in her class. Offers are encouraged, indicating a motivated seller ready to move her.

Both Caterpillar 3412E main engines recently rebuilt.
Generators replaced, ensuring reliable auxiliary power.
Stabilizer fins serviced, critical for comfort offshore.
Significant volume and accommodation for a 100-foot fiberglass yacht.

Expert Review

The President 100 series offers a robust fiberglass platform designed for comfortable cruising. Build quality is generally solid for its era, focusing on functionality and space rather than ultra-luxury finishes. Sea-keeping is respectable for a yacht of this size and hull form, especially with serviced stabilizers. The twin Caterpillar 3412E engines are a proven, reliable power plant, and the fact that both have been rebuilt is a major advantage, significantly de-risking the propulsion system. When surveying, pay close attention to the age of soft goods, electronics, and any signs of water intrusion around windows or deck hardware, as these are common areas needing attention on yachts of this age, even with major mechanical updates. Compare her value against similar-sized Hatteras, Ocean Alexander, or even older Westport models; the recent mechanical work on 'Glen Ellen' gives her a distinct edge in terms of immediate operational readiness. This yacht represents excellent value for a buyer who understands the cost of engine and generator overhauls and prioritizes a mechanically sound vessel.
