Vessel Overview

4 Stateroom Ocean taming HIGH SPEED MOTOR YACHT (38 Knots).

In the late 1980’s and 1990’s, a handful of yachts were built with the most advanced engineering and machinery available. The integrity of their hulls and performance created a new era in yachting. Yachts such as “Octopussy” and “Opal C” are such yachts, and “Texas Star II” is the best value available.

Achieving speeds in excess of 38 knots with solid cruising speeds near 30 knots, you will enjoy the thrill of the travel as well as the arriving.

Come take a ride on “Texas Star II” at around 38 knots (approximately 43 miles mph), it is like standing on a horizontal rocketship. Your friends and you can enjoy breakfast in Fort Lauderdale, a beach picnic lunch in Bimini and dinner in Nassau and then go for a starlight cruise at idle speeds past your favorite moonlight beach!

There are other yachts that may compete in price, but none can compete with performance. While “Texas Star II” can cruise at a lumberly 15 knots with the rest of the yachts they have no ability to cruise at 30 to 35 knots and that makes all -the- difference.

Originally conceived, the propulsion and engine package alone was a $2.4 million upgrade from the standard, which translates to a huge value/speed benefits.

So when shopping for a yacht of incomparable vintage, size and price ranges, consider the following:

35 to 38 knot speed depending on load
Clean, good solid strong safe hull.
4 staterooms in owner’s party with private staircase to master cabin
Huge salon aft deck and Flying Bridge, great for entertaining up to 45 guests (parties with 60 people have been accomplished)
Top MTU equipment and reliable low frequency of service water jets
Upgraded interior – clean and contemporary, allowing your easy additions, modifications and changes to suit your taste.
Large flybridge will hold a crowd for sight seeing of fun in the sun.

Recent Engine and Mechanical upgrades.
