Description

Here's a chance to own a piece of Palm Beach heritage via the craftsmanship of renowned custom boat builder Sunny Briggs. 

Meet "Avenir" a custom Sunny Briggs 37 Express originally commissioned for the famous publisher Peter Pulitzer. Since his ownership, she has undergone a few refits, with the most recent taking place shortly after the current owner purchased her, where she returned to Briggs Boatworks in Wanchese for some TLC before heading north to her new home in Greenwich, CT. In 1997, she was repowered with the desirable 320hp CAT 3208's, which have low hours, and all services are current. 

For more information, please contact the listing broker, as this vessel was introduced to the market after she was placed in winter storage. While she is stored for the winter, she is available to view at any time with prior notice. 

"Avenir" is a true classic that was built to fit in with Palm Beach's finest yachts. Some styling design features include those of Rybovich and Merritt, but her pedigree is all Wanchese. She needs to be seen to appreciate fully.
