1979 Burger 86' Raised Pilothouse
"FREEDOM" is a handsome, classic Burger Yacht that incorporates a lot of the most popular features of this builder. She is built with four watertight bulkheads, double bottom and full keel protecting her props. She offers excellent range and fuel economy at displacement speeds and 20 knots in moderate seas at full power. Every upgrade that has been done has been in keeping with the original lines and concept of the boat. The rich Burger trademark quality and grace is very much evident throughout. Always well-maintained "FREEDOM" has received many upgrades and improvements over the years. She shows and operates like a much newer yacht.
Beautifully updated and upgraded by her current owner, "FREEDOM" has new marble countertops throughout, textured wall coverings, new flooring and so much more that now incorporates a Carolina Chic while still maintaining the class of the classic Burger style.
Note, the top of the flybridge windshield measures 17'08" from the waterline meaning she is Great Loop capable.
