About This Yacht

The Defever 53 POC is one of Arthur DeFever’s most desirable designs. Kinship, re-powered in 2023 is now faster, quieter and more efficient. The Kinship cruises effortlessly at 17 kts with a top speed of 22 kts. At 9 - 10 kts (the original hull speed) the boat has 25% more range.

The boat has better economy and range as well as the muscle to run fast when crossing the gulf-stream or outrunning a storm.

Aspire Yacht Sales is pleased to assist you in the purchase of this vessel. This boat is centrally listed by Barkers Island Marina. It is offered as a convenience by this broker/dealer to its clients and is not intended to convey direct representation of a particular vessel
