BROKER'S COMMENTS

The Miller Fifer owes not a little to the inspiration of John Bain, doyen of this genre of displacement motor yachts whose designs had been used by Millers over the years. This boat has proved herself as capable in this ownership as she did in her first – latterly as the ultimate family cruising boat in British waters offering superb protection from the elements, in her high volume interior and layout, privacy for 2 families in comfort.

This Miller 43 was originally launched as CONTESSA OF DEE in 1979 and soon thereafter sailed south; first to the English South Coast encountering heavy weather on the way. At no stage however did the boat – or her crew show any sign of stress. Similar conditions were encountered off the Brittany coast. Subsequently she has sailed off Portugal, throughout the Mediterranean and latterly in British waters. She has been renamed; firstly CONTESSA and again CONSTANCE OF FIFE.

Fifer

Historical Summary:

Fifer is one of the few remaining Hoffar Beechings, also referred to as the “Boeing Yachts” due to the yards acquisition by the aircraft company in 1929 to assist in building Seaplanes. She began life in 1928 as Deerleap , but was deemed too small for her intended use as a floating hunting lodge, and thus was traded in after one season for the Deerleap we know today. This pattern was repeated in 1939, when she was traded in once again for a larger (105 foot,) “ Fifer .” Through the years she was renamed Grampian, Kitten F, Bardick and then finally back to Fifer.

Originally powered with Hall and Scott gas engines, she was repowered in 1935 with Gardner 6L3 diesels, Glennifer reversing gears, and Hyland Hydraulic windlass and remote operated gear shifts via the engine order telegraphs, which she retains to this day. In 1999 she ran aground, and thus began a series of repairs that ran over budget, over schedule, and incomplete until she gradually fell into disrepair. While yacht shopping for a friend (who ended up buying another Hoffar Beeching,) we found Fifer tied up at Tom Mac Shipyard in Richmond B.C., where most expected her to be broken up.

Once a deal was struck, thus began a year long process of arranging to have her parts shipped to and installed at Tom-Mac. The Engines were rebuilt but at “Alpi’s tire depot in Surrey, and the new shafts, props, and other equipment were in storage in Langley. The process of getting everything operational for the trip to her new home in Port Orchard was accelerated when the owner of her big-sister ship, Deerleap offered the use of his boathouse through October, in order to better repair the decks, and the saloon cabintop (which was cut to remove and reinstall the machinery.)

Wooden Ships Comments on this Miller Fifer Ketch

Designed and built in 1979 by Millers of St Monance.

The yard built both fishing boats and yachts, mostly to in-house designs by James Miller.  They ranged in size from 26’ upwards, this being one of the largest of the class.  The miller Fifers were built on fishing boat scantlings with heavy frames and planking making them robust and capable boats.

This yacht was one of the last built at the yard and is a fine big volume yacht.  She has a nice looking hull a surprisingly tall rig.  Inside and outside helm positions allow for great flexibility, the crew being able to shelter in the wheelhouse during inclement weather, or enjoy the fresh air and helm from the deck.  She has a large modern Perkins diesel installed new in 2006. This is a very easily handled boat that could be single handed.

The accommodation and interior space of this yacht is quite unusual, she has 3 separate sleeping cabins, each with 2 berths which is hardly ever found in a yacht of this length.  The wheelhouse has a comfortable deck saloon with good visibility and space.

She is a highly versatile yacht, capable of long distance cruising or simply to be used as a country cottage afloat.  Given a major overhaul since 2018 she is now in good shape and ready for the next owners.  Full details of all work done in recent years available.

Survey carried out on October 2021, copy available for potential purchasers.

To be represented by Premium Yachts, Ferretti Yachts and Riva , two prestigious brands of the Ferretti Group, will be present at the Moscow International Boat Show 2013, displaying motor yacht Ferretti 530 as well as Riva Iseo yacht tender.

Luxury motor yacht Ferretti 530

Luxury motor yacht Ferretti 530

Luxury yacht Ferretti 530 was very keen to undertake in collaboration once again with AYT – Advanced Yacht Technology, Ferretti Group Engineering Division and Studio Zuccon International Project . The compact dimensions, 16 meters long and almost 5 meters wide, allow the 530 yacht to deliver grand Italian luxury and cruising immersed in such comfort until now unheard of in a yacht of this size.

Ferretti 530 yacht boasts three revolutionary innovations: the full beam master cabin with chaise longue and two large open view windows that make it a real suite at sea level bathed in light, tones and the natural essences of teak. Moving the galley from the center to the aft section creates a unique open space that includes the saloon, galley, cocktail bar and the dining area, the cockpit area continues thanks to the tilting window. The roll bar free sky lounge and the spoiler allow the 530 a sporty appearance combined with elegantly formal lines.

Riva , the iconic Ferretti Group brand, presented a new model at the historical Lake d’Iseo shipyards in July 2011. Featuring elegance and ease of transportation as its distinctive characteristics, Iseo superyacht tender , a 27 foot runabout, is destined to become a must-have for those who love cruising on both lakes and the sea, and, most importantly, design enthusiasts. It is also perfect for anyone wishing to enhance their yacht with an exclusive tender that will never go unnoticed.

Due to its ease of manoeuvrability and size, Iseo yacht tender is also ideal as a tender for large yachts. Innovative and elegant, it can also guarantee comfort in bad weather conditions. Besides the electrohydraulic bimini top, it was also designed with a waterproof, automobile-style soft top which protects those on board against water and the wind during cruising.
