This listing has sold. To check if it, or a sistership, has come back on the market, please call us.
Beautifully restored Ed Monk designed 1953 De Vries Lentsch 68 Motoryacht.
Ed Monk was a famous Naval Architect who designed many boats over the years. This one was built in the G. De Vries Lentsch yard in Amsterdam, Holland before Feadship existed.
The previous owner replaced 70% of the steel on the hull (at a cost of around $500k.) The current owner acquired the vessel around 2005. He added the flybridge and extended the salon, and then refurbished the interior. It's gorgeous!
