1985 FEADSHIP 87' for Sale in Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Here is your opportunity to own a product of one of the most renowned shipyards in the world at an incredible price. Seeing this 87 Feadship sportfish in person, even 39 years after construction, is truly amazing, boasting features and quality that we still do not see in production builds today. THANKS BUDS remains an icon in yachting circles. She was built as the second of two GALLANT LADY Feadship Sportfisherman. At the time of her build, no larger pedigree “Yacht Fisherman” was on the water. While the market has dictated newer, larger, and faster Sportfisherman, none have the class, grace, or quality of a Feadship. Largely, in fact, only systems have been upgraded. Her original Feadship features remain.
Your chance to own an icon.
NOTE: In October of 2024, THANKS BUDS was donated to a marine-oriented charity. As such, she can only be leased for 36 months with a purchase option after the lease.

About Oaksmith Yachts
We know what it feels like to need to know what's past that next hill. To stare across an ocean and want to see what's out there. To wonder what's in that bay or on that island past that next point. To only have a day or a week to explore what should take months. We know what it's like to not be able to afford to let the weather stop you. We know what it feels like and we have a solution.
