"Griffin" is a 2001 Rybovich 65' sportfish offered for sale at $3,200,000, lying Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. South Florida is the world capital of sportfishing boats - the deepest inventory, the best rigging yards, and the fastest-moving market for well-kept hulls.
Power is twin MTU 12V2000, 1,430 hp each. She cruises around 33 knots and tops out near 39 knots, carrying 1,760 gallons of fuel.
Accommodations run to 3 staterooms.












Greg Gaus runs and sells performance boats out of Fort Lauderdale - his current central listings include the Viking 45 Open "The Wroe Boat", a Midnight Express 43, and a Formula 430 SSC - and he spent 20+ years as a professional captain. 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.

What does it cost to run a 65-foot sportfish?
As of 2026, industry estimates for a crewed 65-footer typically run mid to high six figures per year, with a crew of roughly four to six, covering crew, fuel, insurance, dockage, and maintenance. Greg can build a realistic operating budget for this yacht before you offer.
Where can I see "Griffin"?
She is lying in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 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.
How fast is she, and what is the range?
Cruise around 33 knots, top speed about 39 knots and 1,760 gallons of fuel with twin MTU 12V2000, 1,430 hp each - comfortable Florida-Bahamas legs and seasonal Caribbean runs.
