M/Y Dirt Poor
A 1999 Trinity 118-footer on the market through the YATCO MLS.
"Dirt Poor" is a 1999 Trinity 118' motor yacht offered for sale at $1,950,000, lying Fort Lauderdale, Florida. 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 3412C, 1,350 hp each. She cruises around 16 knots and tops out near 21 knots, carrying 10,000 gallons of fuel.
Accommodations run to 4 staterooms for 9 guests.
Highlights
What sets this hull apart on today's market.
Greg Gaus has closed superyacht sales up to 164 feet, including the Westport 164 "Boardwalk" and the Westport 125 "Lion's Den", 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.

What does it cost to run a 118-foot motor yacht?
As of 2026, industry estimates for a crewed 118-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 "Dirt Poor"?
She is lying in Fort Lauderdale, 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.

Price the refit into the offer, not after it.

Before you offer on Dirt Poor he can scope the work, get Fort Lauderdale yard numbers and build them into the price.
