"Special Place" is a 2019 Bavaria 42' motor yacht offered for sale at $485,000, lying San Pedro, California. South Florida is the deepest brokerage market in the world for large motor yachts, and condition separates the good buys from the money pits - which is why independent buyer representation matters more here than anywhere.

Power is twin D-6-435D-F, 435 hp each, showing 400 hours.

Accommodations run to 3 staterooms.

Highlights

What sets this hull apart on today's market.

Greg Gaus has closed superyacht sales including the 164' Westport "Boardwalk" at $26,000,000 and the Westport 125 "Lion's Den" at $19,000,000, after 20+ years as a professional captain running vessels of this class. That is the lens every Double G buyer gets on this listing: what the hull is really worth, what the survey should focus on, and how she compares with every sistership currently for sale.

  • 317 gal fuel - Bahamas and Caribbean legs without stress
The VIRTESS 420 FLY from BAVARIA is the perfect combination of luxury and powerful driving dynamics. The VIRTESS 420 FLY has an impressively large flybridge with a driver’s seat for two people. Next to it is a comfortable sun lounger, which can be folded down to create an additional passenger seat.

Common Questions

"Special Place" questions, answered.

How much does the 42' Bavaria "Special Place" cost?
The asking price is $485,000. Contact Greg Gaus at Double G Yacht Sales at (954) 881-5500 - as your buyer's broker he negotiates on your side, at no cost to you.

Who is selling "Special Place"?
"Special Place" is offered by its listing brokerage through the YATCO MLS. Greg Gaus of Double G Yacht Sales represents you, the buyer: independent advice on price, survey attendance, and negotiation, paid from the existing listing commission - never by you.

What does it cost to run a 42-foot motor yacht?
Plan on roughly 8 to 12 percent of the purchase price per year for an owner-operated 42-footer - fuel, insurance, dockage, and routine maintenance. Greg can build a realistic operating budget for this boat before you offer.

Where can I see "Special Place"?
She is lying in San Pedro, California and shows by appointment through your broker. Contact Double G Yacht Sales to arrange a private showing.

How does the purchase process work?
Accepted offer, then a survey and sea trial contingency of typically 7 to 14 days. Greg - a licensed captain with 20+ years at sea - attends the survey and sea trial personally and manages everything through closing.

How much is Florida sales tax on a yacht?
Florida charges 6% sales tax on boats but caps the total at $18,000 per vessel regardless of price - one of the most favorable regimes in the US. Out-of-state buyers who remove the vessel within the statutory window may qualify for an exemption.
