57' Fexas Custom 57 '86 "Finally Enough"

This boat is a Tom Fexas design one off, built as an aft cabin motor yacht from the Mikelson 50 sportfisher molds. It was built in the Bluewater Factory in Taiwan where the Mikelsons were built at the time and by the Mickelson crew.

While still at the factory, the cockpit was added by extending the hull 7 feet. Also there is a substantial swimstep adding another 4 feet for a total length of 61 feet.

This is a very unusual and exceptional cockpit motor yacht. Very generous spaces and lots of storage. The interior is clean and well thought out. Many possible uses.
