Every vessel offered by YENI Marine Group is thoroughly inspected, professionally reconditioned, and fully serviced by qualified technicians before being offered for sale. Our goal is simple: deliver a truly turnkey vessel that is ready to be enjoyed from day one—not a project.
While some boats may appear to be a “better deal” upfront, vessels that have not been properly reconditioned or fully serviced often come with hidden costs, downtime, and uncertainty. Those expenses, along with lost time on the water, frequently result in a higher total cost of ownership and a more expensive boat in the long run.
YENI Marine Group vessels may be priced slightly above the market average, but that difference reflects the work already completed—eliminating surprise repairs, service delays, and the need to manage a reconditioning project after purchase.
The result is confidence, reliability, and immediate enjoyment for you, your family, and your friends. Buy once, buy right, and get on the water without delay.
The Company offers the details of this vessel in good faith but cannot guarantee or warrant the accuracy of this information nor warrant the condition of the vessel. A buyer should instruct his agents, or his surveyors, to investigate such details as the buyer desires validated. This vessel is offered subject to prior sale, price change, or withdrawal without notice.
