1996 Blackwell 72

This 1996 Blackwell 72 represents a serious opportunity for a buyer seeking a custom-built, large-volume sportfish with significant recent investment. Blackwell yachts are renowned for their robust construction and exceptional offshore capabilities, and this 72-footer is no exception. While a 1996 hull, the current owner has undertaken a comprehensive refresh, addressing key areas that often require attention on vessels of this vintage. The twin Detroit Diesel B-92 HP engines, a proven power package, have received substantial work, with the starboard engine having a complete overhaul just 10 hours ago and the port engine at 40 hours. This is a critical factor, providing considerable peace of mind regarding propulsion. The interior has been professionally repainted, featuring new carpet, headliners, galley appliances, granite countertops, and a new Fusion sound system, effectively modernizing the living spaces. With four cabins and four heads, it offers ample accommodation for extended trips or serious tournament fishing. The inclusion of a bow thruster significantly aids maneuverability for a vessel of this size. This Blackwell 72 is offered at a competitive price point, reflecting its age but also acknowledging the extensive recent upgrades, presenting a compelling value proposition in the large sportfish market.
